Windows 10: upgrade from home to pro fails 0xc004f050

hi,

i have recently bought a laptop that came with windows 10 home, i wanted to convert it to pro, so i bought oem key from an online store, but when i am trying upgrade windows by going in to settings > activation like microsoft says, i see en error message 0xc004f050, now i checked this error message, from what i understood it means that key is correct, but not for this version of windows,

the store that i bought the key from they have mentioned in their help center that oem keys will work on clean install, but not on upgrade/downgrade.


now i have tried from several different sources, but i cannot find windows 10 pro iso,,, i get iso's but when i install them they all turnout to be home, not pro, and i dont get prompted on which version of windows i want to install,

so is there a way that i can convert my oem key to upgrade key? or how can i install pro version so i can activate it with the oem key that i purchased

:)

Product Key
Invalid for Activation, Failure Code: 0xC004F050

You can try and skipping entering the code on install and then do it after the install.

You might have to do a clean install or if this was a Home upgrade from 7 or 8 to 10, then roll back to 7 or 8 and keep your files and settings, then do the Pro upgrade.
