Windows 10: Help with Windows 11 Pro license transfer.

I build my own computers. When Windows 10 Pro was first released, I pourchased a retail license. Afterwards, when Microsoft offered a free upgrade to Windows 11 Pro I upgraded, and I have been using 11 Pro since then on the last PC I built. Now I am building a new PC. How do I install transfer 11 Pro on my new build one I finish?Thank you in advance for your assistance.José

Windows can't find digital license to activate/transfer on new computer. Windows 10 Pro to Windows 11 Pro.

Hello,

I am having trouble transferring my Windows 10 Pro license from an old computer that is barely working to my new computer I have built. The Windows 10 Pro license is a retail license purchased from Microsoft. My new computer is running Windows 11 Pro. Both computers show in my devices list on my account.

Do I need to do anything else to deactivate the other license on the old computer? Original Windows 10 Pro license was purchased in 2018.

Thank you for any help!

 

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.

 

How to transfer Windows 10/11 Pro upgrade license to another machine?

Hello ViatcheslavR1,

I am Jaspreet Singh an independent advisor.

Follow the steps listed here and unlink your license from old system: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-transfer-win...

Then download windows 10 pro via the media creator tool from here : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

Install it as an upgrade on the new system and skip when asked for a key. Login with the account that purchased the home to pro upgrade and the digital license should be linked to this machine.
