    Hello,

    I have re-installed my Windows 10 Home, like I have done my times and it seems to activate on its own properly.

    A while back I purchase the Windows 10 Pro upgrade from the Microsoft Store. I need to go to the store and install this manually since the purchase and it has worked properly many times.

    But now, it gives me an upgrade error and also de-activates my original Windows 10 Home in the process.

    I cant seem to get my Windows 10 Pro activate no matter what. Keep getting errors.


    Error Message I get initially from then Windows Store is :


    Windows upgrade failed

    Error Code:0x80070005


    Can anyone help me with this please?

    :)

  2. 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.

    Windows 10 activation question

    do the upgrade
    it should activate automatically when online
    if you want todo a clean install after that simply boot from your windows 10 installation media and when prompted for a key during install/post install select skip ..
    it will re-activate within 5M of being online
