    W10 Home x64 (via upgrade W7 Home Premium) upgrade to W10 Pro by DVD


    Windows 10 Home x64 in use.
    This W10 is activated after upgrade from Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Is it possible to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro from Windows 10 Home
    with a Microsoft Windows 10 Pro DVD and a valid key ?
    The current Windows 10 Home x64 has applications installed.

    In this case NO upgrade selected to W10Pro by entering a valid key under
    Settings / Systems / Info / Upgrade option.

    :)

    W7 to W10 upgrade

    I am considering upgrading from my current w7 home premium 64 bit to w10 which is offered free.

    Main reason due to w7 home premium only allowing me to use half of my 32gm of ram.

    Simple question:

    Will w7 home premium 64 bit upgrade to w10 home 64 bit?

    Thanks Ruth, I have the W7 Key, which had been activated and Windows Home Premium was running, before I upgraded to W10. I have tried this key on W10 Pro, which I downloaded in mistake for W10 Home, but of course, it did not work. Is there anyway I can
    get rid of W10 Pro and replace it with the Home edition, when I would expect the key to work?
