Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro.How to upgrade from Windows 10 Home to Pro for free | ZDNET
I want to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro which I wish had come preinstalled. My questions are:. If Win 10 Pro comes from Microsoft and not Dell, what happens to all of the Dell pre-install software, drivers, etc. Will this create more problems than it solves, in that I then risk some things not working as expected? Does Dell offer Win 10 Pro as an upgrade to Win 10 Home users, such that after the upgrade it looks and behaves as if Win 10 Pro had been preinstalled? There is no upgrade path. It must be a clean install so copy all your files for reinstalling.
The Pro version is purchased from MS, not Dell. It is really the only way to do it unless you purchase a Win 10 Pro License.. It installs over the current install so start it from within Windows, which it should tell you. I always try to get mine pre-installed with Pro..
The one system which came with Home I upgraded, I believe from the Microsoft store, but I have not checked if Dell sells it. The Pro files are already on your PC, all you have to do is click a few buttons and pay MS the required fee. If you are currently running Win 10 Home, there may be a link on one of the Settings pages to help with that. Possibly the Upgrade section under activation but look around.
If you don't find anything, you can go to the Microsoft Store and purchase the upgrade. There should be instructions as to how to install but it just goes over the current install.

I found that you can use generic windows 10 pro key to just install pro version without activation, and than change key, I didn't do that, so I also don't know if that works anyway.
I have noticed that when there is no pid. Just point iso file, and app will do everything for you. Now go back to those two files ei. Find those settings photo from img google :. This is very comfortable, because when you finish 1st stage of windows install 1st restart , you will only take your USB pendrive off, and reboot computer and windows will install 2nd stage off hdd. Also there was one missing file error during installation. Solution was as follows, restart setup not installation but whole computer , remove all partitions on target disc, and make new partiton and format.
It's even easier than that. Open the system applet in the control panel, and scroll down to the "windows is activated". Click on the "change product key" and enter your 10 Pro license key. Browse Community.
