    Rodrigo -

    You can change Home to Pro by inserting the generic Pro version key to unlock Pro version features:

    http://winaero.com/blog/generic-key-to-install-...


    If it fails online then take the PC offline and try again.

    If that fails then try inserting the key using slmgr /ipk followed by a space and the Product Key:

    Then you'll need to continue online with the steps in the tutorial to change hardware, signing in with your Microsoft account that has the previous PC's Pro license linked to it, running the Activation Troubleshooter to apply the license to the new hardware.

    If that fails then I'd contact Microsoft Support, asking for Activation help, then keep asking for an agent.

    How did you obtain WIndows 10 Pro? If it was an Upgrade or from the Store then there's no Product Key as it uses a Digital License stored in Microsoft Activation Servers that reactivates when necessary as soon as it connects to the internet.

    So did you have a retail product Key? Yes or No? If not then you would follow the steps I already gave to move Activation to new hardware.

    Note that the underlying license for the origin PC must be retail and not OEM because OEM licenses cannot move past the first motherboard installed upon, and the free Upgrade inherits this restriction.

    Under Status and Edition it says Activate Windows.

    I inserted the Activation ID, I followed this video:

    I already tried it, and noticed that the pattern of the product key XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX was not like the Activation ID's pattern.

    The problem is that the Product key does not show up when I press the command slmgr.vbs, it only shows "Name, Description, Activation ID, Application ID, Extended PID, Product Key Channel, Installation ID, Use License URL, Validation URL, Partial Product
    Key, License Status, Remaining Windows rearm count, Remaining SKU rearm count, and Trusted time"
