Sorry, this feature most likely will only be offered in the Professional and Higher Versions of Windows 10.  Unfortunately, the reason for this is due to the cost barrier.  Please Contact Microsoft in writing for further information at Microsoft Corporation One Microsoft Way Redmond, WA 98052-6399 USA

Dan,

 

Thank you for replying. My assumption was that Education Edition is a Higher Version then Pro. Based off the features available per the Wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10_editions . I will reach out to our TAM and escalate.

    Based on the Wiki Article provided - "EducationWindows 10 Education is distributed through Academic Volume Licensing. Initially, it was reported to have the same feature set as Windows 10 Enterprise.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10_editions#cite_note-:0-1https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10_editions#cite_note-:1-2https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10_editions#cite_note-:2-3 As of version 1709, however, this edition has less features. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10_editions#Comparison_chart for details"

     

    Yes, please escalate the issue as needed.

        I think you are trying to say that you are using Mozilla Firefox in a Ubuntu Window on a Win10 desktop.  Is the Windows 10 desktop a current supported model or is this a preview release?  Please enlighten us to version model of Windows 10 desktop?  Are you running Ubuntu (also are interested in version number) in a Virtual Machine within a Windows 10 Environment and then proceeding to load Xming Server while running in a Bash window on top of Mozilla Firefox and you are not getting any current support because this is an unsupported configuration (meaning what you are doing is not in the current Microsoft regimen) but it is working as a test model for you.  Is this correct and can you explain further what your expected outcome from this testing will be or is this just for personal interest?
