  1. Can't Activate W10 Pro. Seem to have "Enterprise"


    I paid to upgrade W10 Home to W10 Pro. I keep getting "Activate Windows" message. When I look at Activation in Settings I see Edition is Windows 10 Enterprise. "Can't activate because you don't have a valid digital license." How did this happen and how do I fix it?

    :)

  2. Enterprise activate

    I was going by my "My Visual Studio Enterprise" subscription. It has since expired, but when active there were no Retail Keys listed for Enterprise, only MAK keys.

    Downgrade Windows 10 Enterprise to Windows 10 Pro  


    Hey Peter, Can't Activate W10 Pro. Seem to have "Enterprise" :)

    As long as you have a W10 Pro license linked to your MSA for that PC, you would be able to use the generic key under step 1 to downgrade from Enterprise to Pro, then let it automatically activate Pro with your digital license.
