    Upgrade to Win10 Pro & to new SSD


    Hi All,


    I have query related to fresh SSD Installation. My current HDD is dead & I have new SATA SSD to be install on my Dell Inspiron. Can you please let me know how I can install SSD on laptop with fresh WIN 10 Pro / Home edition OS installation.


    Currently I have licensed Win 10 Home edition. Is it possible to directly install Win10 Pro on SSD by skipping Home edition?


    How to install SSD on laptop with fresh OS installation. For safer side, I have created OS recovery to PD from Dell website , not sure about installation of OS on SSD.


    What kind of settings needs to be changed for New SSD Installation with fresh OS on it.?

    :)

  3. Upgrading OEM Win10 Home to MSDN Win10 Pro

    Moving to a new PC that I'm building myself. Currently running Dell OEM Win10 Home. New PC will have Win10 Pro, MSDN (multi-activation or retail keys) version.


    My backup software can do a "system transfer" that will allow me to transfer everything (OS and applications) to the new computer.


    Should I upgrade from OEM Home to MSDN Pro on the old computer and then transfer everything to the new computer?


    Or just install Win10 PRO MSDN on the new computer and use the backup software vendor's application transfer program to move the applications and registry entries?


    My goals are:

    1. Not have any "dinosaur bones" either from the OS on my SSD from the old OEM Home version on the new PRO version

    1. Not have to reinstall and reconfigure everything (which would take about a week)

    Thanks for any advice I can get...
