Windows 10: Upgrading OEM Win 10 to Win 11 or getting back to the OEM after disk wiped

I bought the computer below with OEM Win10. MS insisted with installing Win11 every other week until I installed it. Now I cant activate Win11 and this device saying "Go to the store to buy genuine windows. Error code 0x80004005". I have the windows sticker on the NUC but no Key. This is what I bought BXNUC10I5FNHJA1 Intel® NUC 10 Performance Mini PC with Intel® Core™ i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD, 16GB Intel® Optane™ Memory, Windows® 10, w/ US cord This device shows into my Win account as Name DESKTOP-ACIR645 OS Edition Windows 11 Professional Version 2009 OS Build 10.0.22621.1778 System type NUC10

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

 

Does Win 8 OEM Get Free Upgrade, And Does Win 10 Wipe HDD?

Does Win 8 OEM Get Free Upgrade?
If you have patched it to Windows 8.1 with the latest updates: yes.

Does Win 10 Wipe HDD?

Not the original upgrade - but if you get the ISO, you could later wipe your hard drive and install cleanly...

You shouldn't have to 're-install' anything that is currently installed and working *if* the manufacturer of said product says it works with Windows 10 and all you do is the in-place upgrade.

 

win 11 stand alone OEM?

I do not have win 10, I have win 7 with an OEM software , upgraded to 8, then then 8.1 had too many problems, went back down to 7. What I want to do is remove the SSD from my existing computer, install a new SSD with a OEM version of WIN 11, without have to have win 8 or 10 on the SSD, then I can move all my programs from the old SSD, and reactivate my license's with the companies I bought they from which I have done before. I have transferred An OEM WIN 7 license from one mother board to another when I upgraded my old motherboard and processor-I7, to a new motherboard and I9 processor and decommissioned the computer it can from. My old motherboard and processer can run Win 11, except for the fact Win 11 will not ugrage from Win 7. Just need to make sure I can install WIN 11 as a stand alone clean install in a new SSD, without needing win 8 or 10. A statement I found from Microsoft is Troubling.

Seller of the OEM software

"Use of this OEM System Builder Channel software is subject to the terms of the Microsoft OEM System Builder License".

From Microsoft

"This software is intended for pre-installation on a new personal computer for resale."
