# Standard Profiles

Every Salesforce org includes standard profiles that you can assign to users. Edits to standard profiles are limited to certain settings.

### Required Editions

<table class="slds-table slds-table_bordered slds-max-medium-table_stacked slds-m-bottom_small edition"><colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody><tr class=""><td class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;">Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience</td></tr><tr class=""><td class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;">Your edition determines which standard profiles are available.</td></tr></tbody></table>

Every org includes standard profiles. In Professional, Enterprise, Unlimited, Performance, and Developer Editions, you can use standard profiles or create, edit, and delete custom profiles. In orgs where you can’t create custom profiles, such as Contact Manager and Group Editions, you can assign standard profiles to your users, but you can’t view or edit them.

While you can’t edit standard profile permissions, you can edit the following settings:

- Custom App Settings
- Tab Settings
- Desktop Integration Clients options
- Session Settings
- Password Policies

The following table lists commonly used permissions in standard profiles.

                    ’21 and later don’t have the Read Only standard profile, but these orgs can use the
                    Minimum Access profile and assign custom permission sets to grant users read access
                    as required. For more information, see the knowledge article, <a href="https://help.salesforce.com/apex/HTViewSolution?urlname=Read-Only-Profile-Conversion-to-Custom-Profile&amp;language=en_US" target="_blank">Read Only Profile Conversion to Custom
