Probate the will is nothing but entrossed by the court. It is more safer. So my personal suggestion is probate the will is good for ur future.

Probate of will is essential whether the will is registered or unregistered it is of no value but it must be signed by witness and after the probate of will right arises to the person to whom will is executed. So as per as my suggestion go for probate of will in the interest of your future right.
