    Updating Win 11 to pro from a disabled PC


    I recently bought a new ASUS PC with Win 10 home installed. Obviously this is an OEM License. The PC I was using had Win 10 Pro on it, but I have turned that into a FreeNAS server. I won't be needing/using that Win 10 license anymore. I have updated the ASUS PC to Win 11, but I'd really rather have the pro version. Is there anyway I can use my old Win 10 pro to update the ASUS to pro with having to reload WIn 10 and do another update?

    :)

    IE 11 in Win 10 pro non-responsive


    I just resolved issue with IE 11 in Windows 10 pro x64 bit 1709 buildDell e6430 16GB RAM I-7 processorWhile all other browsers were running without issues IE 11 was not responding. Since it would immediately crash after launch I was not able to get to tools tab and do any setting changes. Have tried various options from forums suggestions but non worked. Finally I gave a shot to last option I could come up with that would not involve resetting OS (IE 11 is part of Win 10 OS).1. Open control panel from search bar2. Go to Programs and open Turn Windows features on or off3. Uncheck Internet Explorer 114. Disregard warning and click YES5. Reboot computer6. Repeat steps 1 and 2 and check Internet Explorer 11 box.7. Disregard warning if comes up and click YES8. Reboot machine 9. Open internet explorer Internet explorer was functioning for me and I was able to go tools tab and disable add-ons During the reset I disable temporary Symantec Endpoint enterprise security software, just in case) but I don't think that was necessary. If these steps solved your problem please check box with YES.
    Thank you and good luck

    Update Win 10 Home to 10 Pro

    maybe thinking too much, but would you be able to upgrade a win 11 home to pro with a win 8 key?

    think my days of building PCs are over, got this key sitting doing nothing, had it since 2012.

    my laptop is compatible for win 11 (MSI GV72 8RD) did the check yesterday

    Hi Sandra,

    To help you out with your concern, we suggest that you disable the add-ons in Internet Explorer 11. For step by step instructions, go to this

    link
    , then look for the title Turning off and removing add-ons.

    We also suggest that you reset Internet Explorer 11 through these steps:

    • Go to Internet Explorer then click the Gear icon.
    • Choose Internet options > Advanced.
    • Click Reset.

    (Note: If you have added Favorites, back up them first before resetting the browser. )

    Regards.
