    Transfer Win 10 Pro upgrade to New Computer with Win 10 Home

    I have purchased a new computer with Win 10 Home.

    I have an old computer which was upgraded from Win 10 Home to Win 10 Pro. It is activated digitally.

    I want to down grade the old computer to Win 10 Home and upgrade the new one from Win 10 Home to Win 10 Pro.

    The cost of the upgrade package is more that the old computer is worth.

    I have Acronis 2020 and can clone the old system to the new one but that won't fix the Digital License.

    Help please.

    Win 10 Home to Pro upgrade

    How do I upgrade from Win 10 Home to Win 10 Pro with a digital Licence. The in structions say

    • If you have a digital license for Windows 10 Pro, and Windows 10 Home is currently activated on your device, select
      Go to Microsoft Store and you'll be prompted to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro for free.

    Fine, but how do I get a digital Licence for Win 10 PRo??

    Going to Microsoft Store via the upgrade with digital licence link, provides no opton for upgrading.

    Any solution??

    Upgrade new PC Win 11 Home to Pro. Old PC has Win 10 Pro digital license

    Can I upgrade OEM win 10 home to Pro and then transfer to a new build PC?

    Hi, I bought a laptop 5 years ago which came with win 8.1 OEM installed. I did the free upgrade to win 10 home when this came available.

    I have built my own PC with new components, but I'm aware that I can't transfer the win 10 home license as it is OEM and linked to the hardware of the old laptop.

    What I was wondering, is if I upgrade the win 10 home to win 10 pro via the windows store on my old laptop, will this allow me to then transfer the win 10 pro license to my new build PC, or will this license continue to be linked solely to the existing laptop?

    Hope that makes sense.
