How do I check if my Windows 8/8.1 is home or professional ? In control panel > system it just says Windows 8.1 Single Language.

You don't have Pro. If it's Win 8 Core (what some would consider "Home" version) then the "Pro" simply won't be displayed.

You can also quickly check the Win version using WindowsKey+R then type: winver
Again, if you have Pro, you'll see it. If not, you wont.

Win 8 (NOT Pro)

Win 8 Pro
