Windows 10 N is just Windows 10 without Windows Media Player and related technologies pre-installed including Music, Video, Voice Recorder, and Skype. It is for customers in Europe and lacks media-related technologies.

Windows 10 Enterprise

Builds on Windows 10 Pro, adding advanced features designed to meet the demands of medium and large-sized organizations. It’s designed for large-scale businesses and operations that need super-tight security for private information over dozens of computers.

Windows 10 Education

Builds on Windows 10 Enterprise, and is designed to meet the needs of schools – staff, administrators, teachers, and students.

Windows 10 S

It is aimed primarily at education uses. It is a lighter operating system that should work on low-powered (and cheaper) devices that don't have cutting-edge processors. it has one key limitation - you can only download apps from the Windows Store. That means you can't install regular programs from other sources.
