First, as Jared Epp pointed out to me via email, for licensing reasonsWindows 10 Home and Pro are limited to 2 CPUs(sockets),while Pro for Workstations and Enterprise are limited to 4 (possiblyrequiring build 1903 or later to use more than2). Similarly, Windows 11 Home is limitedto 1 CPU while 11 Pro is limited to2.Therefore, limiting sockets to 1 or two on these systems is stronglyrecommended.
