I believe if you want to know something, it is best to go straight to
the source. I have used Microsoft forums in the past when I need
accurate information and not just guesses. I would suggest that the OP
start here
<https://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-us/home?category=windows10itpro>
, find an appropriate forum and post his question. At the very least,
someone will direct him to the best place to ask his question.
