  1. Keep using Windows 10 Pro N after end of school/study


    Dear Microsoft-Team,



    is it right to keep my Windows 10 Pro N which I got from my former school/university I don't remember which one, but I definitely got it from my former school or university?


    I appreciate the answer a lot since I want to act in the right way. I've finished study and I earn money thanks to my study and to you.


    Unfortunately, I can't find any documents related to the purchase for evidence. I can name you the school and university though.



    Some information I know about my Windows 10 Pro N:

    • At Settings -> Update and Security -> Activation it says that Windows was activated via a digital license, which is linked to my Microsoft-Account.

    • At Settings -> System -> Info it says Version 1909, OS build 18363.1256

    • It has been working perfectly fine to this day. I did major changes at my hardware at times, and it still worked to install and activate without using a key.

    • I install Windows via my personal USB-Stick, which I made bootable. It contains the Windows 10 Pro N installation files.

    • Weird to say, but I would like to keep this Windows 10 Pro N since I am very happy with it and wouldn't want to change it ever.



    The official Microsoft Support doesn't answer to me. That's the reason I am posting my question in here.


    Thank you!



    Best Regards,

    Chevy

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Pro N to Windows 10 Pro

    I have an activation key for windows 10 Pro but I accidentally installed Windows 10 Pro N, I know it is probably simple and I am just dumb but can someone walk me through the steps of going from Pro N to Pro.

    suggestion: if you are bored at school, read your school books, do homework, study.
    good grades -> good job -> hot wife & good sex -> win!

  4. Keep using Windows 10 Pro N after end of school/study

    How to replace Windows 10 Pro N license to just Pro?

    No, I suggested to download the ISO file yourself. Install Media Creation Tool, choose Create Bootable Media or Download ISO, untick the box to Use Recommended Settings if it suggests N version so you can choose Pro in your bit version. Then proceed with
    the other steps I gave.
