  1. Restore Windows 10 Home after upgrading to Windows 10 Pro (Temp Key)


    For Clarification: My Windows 10 Home had a Digital Licence attached to my Microsoft Account, and I would like to be able to go back to using that


    So I used the temporary Windows 10 Pro key to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro thinking it would already be active. I've tried multiple things to go back, and even resorted to the Microsoft Toolkit thing. The Windows 10 Default Key. Nothing. Nothing worked. I couldn't active Win10 Pro and I couldn't go back to Win10 Home. Can someone help me go back to Windows 10 Home? I would prefer a method that doesn't require wiping the data.

    :)

    Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

    I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

    After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

    I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:
    • Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
    • Try different keyboard or mouse.
    • Restart computer, repeatedly.
    • Google for related issues.
    • Update Bios, because why not.
    • Create boot media and revert to windows 7.
    The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

    Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

    windows 10 key

    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?
