Microsoft has released several versions of the Windows 10 operating system, each of which has its own characteristics and is suitable for different users. Due to the fact that the functionality of each version is different, their cost is also different. Sometimes, users working on the Home build want to upgrade to an extended Pro, so today we would like to show how this can be done in detail two ways.
The built-in Windows will complete the download of files and install them automatically, after which the release will be updated. During this process, do not turn off the computer and do not break off the Internet connection.
Method 2: Purchase and Further Update version
The previous method is only suitable for users who have already acquired an activation key from an authorized seller or has a licensed disk or a flash drive with the code specified on the box. If you have not purchased the update yet, it is recommended to do this through the Microsoft official store and immediately install it.
- Being in the "Parameters" section, open "Activation" and click the "Go to Store" link.
- Here is accessible to the functionality of the version used.
- At the very top window, click on the "Buy" button.
- Log in to the Microsoft account, if you have not done this earlier.
- Enter a tied card or add it to pay for the purchase.
After purchasing Windows 10 Pro, follow the instructions specified on the screen in order to complete the assembly installation and proceed to its direct use.
Usually the transition to the new version of Windows occurs without problems, but not always. If you have any problems with activating a new assembly, use the appropriate recommendation in the "Activation" section in the "Parameters" menu.
