    Can't upgrade to 11 PRO


    Error Code: 0x80071a91Same results after several reboots . On 12/30/2023 I went to upgrade your edition of windows and from Microsoft store and purchased 11 pro, order number 3087276071. I currently have Windows 11 home. Each time I try to install I get am error code of 0x80071a91. I am not computer savvy, just a user who just wanted to do an update. I don’t have IT help or want to spend more money to see what is wrong. Please credit my PayPay the $105.93. I am not interested in spending several hours to see if this works or lets try this. I just want a refund.

    :)

    Windows 11 Pro Upgrade from Windows 10 Pro Edition

    No but after it installed the malfunctioning Windows 11 upgrade it was listed as Windows 11 Pro. Microsoft Windows support advised I reinstall Windows 10 Pro and said that Windows 11 is really only meant for new PC's that come with it preinstalled. MSI website doesn't list my 2020 GT76 Titan dt-039 notebook on their Windows 11 upgrade eligibility list so I guess that's why the Windows 11 Pro upgrade failed. I suggest being careful with trying the Windows 11 upgrade despite it stating my notebook was capable of running Windows 11 it was wrong. Luckily I have the original Windows 10 Pro USB Flash drive because the Windows 11 Pro upgrade was so incomplete I had no way of reverting notebook back to Windows 10 without reinstalling from a USB Flash.

    Windows 11 Home to Pro upgrade

    Want to upgrade 11 Home to 11 Pro. Tried download, but apparently files transferred were for 11 Enterprise. This will not activate; error is "invalid digital license or product key". This is on a new Surface. How to proceed?

    Can withdraw/delete this. The suggestion to downgrade - listed below - with a 'fake' windows 10 key works.
