Unable to upgrade Windows 11 Home to 11 Pro

Thanks much, Dave, indeed it was a big job.

Clean install of Windows 11 from a bootable USB helped to Activate the Pro.

Just to summarize what was done:

1. Took backup of the drives and save some on cloud.
   
2. Installed the Media creation tool app as you suggested (Windows 11 herunterladen)
   
3. Connected the USB and ran the application and downloaded the Windows 11.
   
   1. additional thing which I had to do is to install WLAN driver to the USB in advance, to have the WIFI option available as it was required to connect to a network to download the latest windows features while reinstalling the Windows, and Wi-Fi option was not available.
      
4. Turned off the 'Secure boot' from the BIOS menu.
   
5. Changed the 'Boot Order' in the BIOS menu to first use the USB Boot.
   
6. Saved and Exit, which triggered Restart and Windows installation.
   
7. During the network connecting stage to install the latest updates and features - 'Let's Connect you to a network', I opened the CMD (Shift + F10) and ran than WLAN driver exe to install it and then I was able to connect to my WIFI network.
   
   1. Optional to this step is to BYPASS the network connection stage by following this - bypass "lets connect you to a network" - Microsoft Community
      
   2. Then, doing that manually once Windows has been installed.
      
8. Once everything is set-up, I followed the suggestion from this again, and it worked - Unable to upgrade Windows 11 Home to 11 Pro - Microsoft Community
   

 

RDP stopped working after Win 11 Pro activation

I initially upgraded my new Win 11 Home to Pro. After using RDP to set it up, the new user activated Win 11 Pro and RDP stopped working.

 

Unable to RDP to Windows 11 Machine

I hope someone can help as I have been pulling my hair out for a few weeks over this issue.

I have a Windows 11 Virtual Machine in Azure which I have been able to connect to until recently. When connecting it gets to Securing connection and it then fails. I have tried a local user account and it connects fine with no issues. As soon as I use my AAD user it has this issue my account is AD Synced from local AD. I have tried to login to the VM using a cloud only account as this also works.

I have also setup a Windows 365 Cloud PC and this is also doing the same thing and not letting me connect with my AAD account.

• Virtual PC is Windows 11 22H2.
  
• Joined to Azure AD with Intune
  
• I can login if I am using a 3rd party tool such as Teamviewer or Connectwise Control.
  
• I can login to the VM using local credentials via RDP.
  
• I can login to the VM using another AAD account (Non AD Synced) via RDP.
  
• I have made my AAD account Cloud only and I am still experiencing the same thing.
  
• I have tried the Registry UDP fix for Windows 11.
  
• I have tried a fresh install of Windows 11 22H2 on my laptop in case this was causing some issues.
  
• I have tried to re join the VM to AAD.
  

When connecting to the Azure VM using my login details that fail, I get these 2 errors in the event log. (RemoteDesktopServices-RdpCoreTS/Operational)

• RDP_TCP: An error was encountered when transitioning from StateUnknown in response to Event_Disconnect (error code 0x80070040).
  
• TCP socket READ operation failed, error 64
  

Really hopeful someone has come across this before and can help.
