    You have a key attached to the Box version, the OEM has the key entered in the register and assigned to the motherboard.

    Okay, I know that.

    I asked how to check it from the system level. For example, in XP you could check in the Control Panel.

    Dude, you didn't indicate that only from the system level, you got the answer to the question asked, so please don't get overwhelmed.
    If you want to look for this on your system, open the control panel through my computer system tab and the last information applet.
    I do not remember if in Windows 10 it was selected in the system, because it is not an important issue and the place where it usually works, but if so, it will be visible here. I am not sitting at the Windows 10 computer at the moment

    Where did I lift myself? Read with understanding because you probably have gaps. And your utterance does nothing at all because you write that "I do not remember"

    I read somewhere that Win 10 Home does not have "privacy management" as is the case with Win10 Pro. Is it true ?

Topic summary

To determine whether Windows 10 Pro is an OEM or BOX version, users can check the product key's storage method. OEM versions have the key embedded in the motherboard's registry, while BOX versions come with a physical key. For system-level verification, users can utilize the command line with the command "slmgr -dli" to identify the licensing channel. Additionally, there is a discussion about the differences in features between Windows 10 Home and Pro, specifically regarding privacy management capabilities.
