  1. purchased Windows 10 Pro but the system shows as Windows Enterprise


    Dears,


    Kindly assist me on this.


    I have purchased Windows 10 Pro from official Microsoft site in order to upgrade my Windows 10.


    However there were some error messages came and now my system profile shows as Windows Enterprise.


    What should I do ?


    I am unable to contact Microsoft team in UAE thereafter. On the recording I have given my contact number and get it registered.


    but tried calling 4 different times about 10 minutes waiting. Still unable to get though.


    Can I resolve this issue on my own ?


    your kind support will be highly appreciated.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Purchased and Installed Windows 10 Pro Upgrade - but, is now showing Enterprise

    I have a new laptop that came with Windows 10 Home installed. I purchased the $99 Windows Pro Upgrade and installed it. It is now showing the version is Windows 10 Enterprise. I checked my receipt and it's Windows 10 Pro (not Enterprise).

    Now, Windows is saying that I need to Activate my Subscription, but it won't let me since I don't actually have an Enterprise purchase - just Pro.

    I've read through some other Microsoft forums and similar problems have been reported by others. It sounds like to fix it you might need to reinstall and/or apply other solutions that are somewhat complicated. I'm ok with just purchasing Enterprise if I
    need to - as long as it's a simpler fix.

    What do I need to do to fix this as easily as possible?

    Thanks,

    purchased Windows 10 Pro but the system shows as Windows Enterprise

    Windows 10 Release Date Announced

    Windows 10 Home will be $119, Pro $199.

    Microsoft: Windows 10 Home costs $119, Pro costs $199



    Which is good news actually, because Windows 8.1 is loads cheaper than previous versions (retail licensing at Windows 7 OEM prices). And it sort of puts a huge hole in the Windows subscription theory.
