    EFS not available on home edition despite google stating that it is specifcally.

    Note that "Google states" means that Google found information on the web that says something.

    This search https://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+enable+EFS+on+windows+10+home+edition shows me this at the top of the page

    Google is going to find a wide range of information.

    And, remember... Microsoft doesn't own (or have any influence over) Google.
