  1. Bought upgrade to Pro, got Enterprise which can't be activated


    Hi,


    I bought Lenovo laptop with preinstalled Windows 10 Home edition.

    In Microsoft Store bought upgrade to Pro.

    Now I ended up with edition reading Enterprise and unable to activate due to 0xC0004F025 error.


    What is very frustrating, I've got no product key to upgraded Pro version.

    Failed to access MS support as access is shielded with options with none suitable and paywalls.

    :)

  2. Downgrade from Windows 10 Enterprise to Pro

    Hello,

    I need to downgrade from Windows 10 Enterprise to Windows 10 Pro.

    1. I had windows 8.1 home and upgraded to windows 10 home, using the media creation tool 1809.
    2. After windows 10 home installation , I went to Settings > Updates and Security > Activation > Go to Microsoft Store. Bought Windows 10 Pro, but instead of Install I did upgrade to workstation.
    So now I have Windows 10 Enterprise and I can't activate it, which is normal, cause I bought windows 10 Pro and not Enterprise.

    How can I downgrade it to Windows 10 Pro?

    Thank you in advance.

  3. Windows 10 Home upgrade to Pro becomes not activated Enterprise?

    This is the second time in a row where I've upgraded a PC from Windows 10 Home to Pro via the Microsoft Store on the machine. However, upon restarting I get the message that shows that Windows isn't activated and in the computer properties it shows that
    the machine is now Windows 10 Enterprise. Why is this occurring so often? How can an upgrade from Home to Pro suddenly become Enterprise, and on top of that, not activated? I'm paying for these upgrades, yet I'm not receiving them. Are there any steps that
    I must take to prevent this from happening? Is it inevitable?

    Unable to activate Windows 10 Pro

    Enterprise and Pro are not the same thing.
