Dual boot with win 10 upgrade using win 10 pro license?

I understand the the win 10 upgrade is an overwrite of the existing OS (which is win 7 sp2 for me). Can I buy the win 10 pro license as an upgrade to the win 10 upgrade? then download the upgrade and create a dual boot with the existing win 7? What is the
procedure for dual boot?

thank you,

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

 

Win 10 Pro Upgrade License

Hello Forum,

What type of Win 10 license should I have if I purchased Win 10 Pro upgrade from the Microsoft Store online?

I would presume I would have a retail license. Is that correct?

The Win 10 Pro upgrade was installed on a new HP Laptop that came with Win 10 Home preinstalled. I would think that the HP Laptop with Win 10 Home preinstalled would come with an OEM license.

Does the license change from OEM to Retail when I install the Win 10 Pro upgrade purchased from the Microsoft Store online?

Thank you for your assistance.
