Windows 10: Replace Windows 10 CoreN on new PC

Hi all,


I've an old PC running a RETAIL copy of Windows 10 Pro. I've since bought a new PC that came with Window 10 Home Premium N installed by the manufacturer. I want to replace this with the Pro version from my old PC.


The steps I've taken are to create an install USB, using the media creation tool on my old PC, run the setup of this on the new PC, delete the Partitions on the drive and then continue with the install.


The new PC at the end still has Windows 10 Home Premium N installed?


Can anyone tell me what is going on and how I can remove this and successfully have Pro moved to the new PC?


Thanks in advance.

:)

 

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

Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
