Windows 10: Education licence

I'm a high school student and I'm trying to get my hands on a windows 10 education licence how would I go about this

:)

 

Licence issues (Home / Pro Education)

I bought a copy of Windows 10 Home from Amazon
LINK last year but I have only just used it.

When I installed Windows from the USB stick during the install I was asked for the key. I used the one from the licence and it was refused. I continued with the install and once done I entered the key "activation" section of Settings.

The key was accepted but instead of it being for Home it is for Pro Education. Windows upgraded it's self to Pro Education.

The packaging and licence along with the USB key looks legit, have I been sold a duff copy of Windows?

I suspect not if you are on an Education volume licence.

It's probably been put there to stop abuse of such licences.

 

Windows Education Issue

Are you have Windows 10 Education installed?

To find out if you have the right edition installed:

Click Start > Settings > Update & security > Activation > Edition.

If you don't have the right edition installed, you will need to download and install it.

Step 1:

Download Windows 10 Education ISO files

If you attend a college or university, your institution might provide you with the Education edition of Windows 10. If you are only provided with a license (product key), you can download the .ISO file from the Microsoft Download Academic Products website.

Go to the following link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/vlacademicISO





Scroll down then enter your Windows 10 Education product key, then click verify
