    Trying to uninstall Windows 10 Pro so I can install Windows 10 Home


    I have a computer I bought in 2016 that was loaded with Windows 10 Pro as well as Windows 10 Home. The Pro is operating the computer, but I would like to remove it and use Windows 10 Home. (This was a legal purchase from Laptopsplus.) I have checked all of the Community resources and Microsoft guidance. I have run slmgr.vbs /dlv. It showed the Installation: Notification and gave the error message 0xc004f056. I tried to create windows media with a bootable USB but that didn't work. Tried to uninstall the Windows 10 Pro but could not find the appropriate temporary files.

    Looking for whatever help you can provide.


    Thank you.

    :)

  2. Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

    I have bought a legit "Windows 10 Pro" key of a key website. It is legit since i'm currently using it for over a year now. I currently have Windows 10 Pro installed on my PC and I want to do a clean install. I just can't find the windows 10 Pro download in the tool. But if i could use a windows 10 pro key with a normal windows 10 install, I'll be good to go.

    Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

    As far as I am aware there is no Windows 10 Pro version.
    But I'd be happy to be wrong.

    Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

    As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.
