    Upgrade with OEM key


    Hello! I have been trying to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro with an OEM key for a while and it hasn't been working. I saw somewhere to use a defaultWindows 10 Pro key, but the one they provided would not work. Please help. Thanks in advance!

    Upgrade a Win 10 home OEM to Win 10 Pro OEM with Win 10 Pro OEM Key?

    I recently purchased a laptop that has an OEM version of Win 10 Home on it.

    I verified this by using : slmgr -dli.

    Previously I had purchased an OEM Win 10 Pro Key.

    Can I use this OEM Win 10 Pro Key to upgrade the OEM Win 10 Home to the OEM Win 10 Pro.

    If so what are the steps to accomplish this?

    In addition, I assume that is this is possible, that the current product key will be updated to the new product key?

    The reason I am asking this is that it's my understanding that these product keys are tied to the bios on a name brand laptop.

    TIA

    Upgrade with OEM key

    Windows 10 Home Upgrade to Pro using OEM Disc and key

    Hi, Andre

    I have the same problem. I have a Windows 10 Pro OEM key and can't enter it directly to force the upgrade.

    I read that even if I follow your suggestion, I won't be able to activate the Win 10 Pro (obtained via your easy upgrade method) with my OEM key.

    Can you confirm that the OEM key will work to activate the Windows 10 Pro obtained via easy upgrade?

    Thanks

    Bruno
