  1. Transfer an OEM Win 11 home to Win 11 pro on a new ssd


    I just bought a new computer with a 1tb ssd and win 11 home. I plan on doing an upgrade to win 11 pro, backup the upgraded OS to a flash drive and then install a 2tb drive & copy the backup to the new ssd and delete the os from the 1tb drive. Will that work? I want to use a 2tb drive instead of a 1tb for my programs and use the 1tb as a small data drive.

    :)

  2. Transfer Win 11 Pro key after upgrading from Home OEM; and keep Home OEM on old computer

    My old computer had Win 11 Home OEM. I upgraded it to Win 11 Pro.

    Is it possible to transfer the 11 Pro key from the old computer to a new computer. Then, keep running Home OEM on old computer?

    Thanks!

  3. win 11 stand alone OEM?

    I do not have win 10, I have win 7 with an OEM software , upgraded to 8, then then 8.1 had too many problems, went back down to 7. What I want to do is remove the SSD from my existing computer, install a new SSD with a OEM version of WIN 11, without have to have win 8 or 10 on the SSD, then I can move all my programs from the old SSD, and reactivate my license's with the companies I bought they from which I have done before. I have transferred An OEM WIN 7 license from one mother board to another when I upgraded my old motherboard and processor-I7, to a new motherboard and I9 processor and decommissioned the computer it can from. My old motherboard and processer can run Win 11, except for the fact Win 11 will not ugrage from Win 7. Just need to make sure I can install WIN 11 as a stand alone clean install in a new SSD, without needing win 8 or 10. A statement I found from Microsoft is Troubling.

    Seller of the OEM software

    "Use of this OEM System Builder Channel software is subject to the terms of the Microsoft OEM System Builder License".

    From Microsoft

    "This software is intended for pre-installation on a new personal computer for resale."
