    I accidentally put an invalid Windows 10 Education key on my laptop and now I can’t undo...


    My new laptop originally came with Windows 10 Home, but I tried adding Windows 10 Education without realising that I have already used the code for another device. Now my laptop keeps saying that Windows 10 Education is not activated, which is limiting everything that I can do on my laptop. How do I remove the code and go back to Windows 10 Home? Please help!! I need the laptop in working condition ASAP for school.


    I have already tried resetting the laptop to factory settings and the “recovery” mode but to no avail.


    Thank you!!

    :)

    Thanks but I don't want to do any decrypting. I want to download a Win 10 ISO from Microsoft and install it using my Win 8 key. No other steps required. Is that possible?

    Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

    As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.
