Windows 10: when you use the Windows Media tool to create a New Install, it does not give me a choice...

Paid for a new install of Windows 10 Pro and have the key for it.

When I download it, no choice of the two is offered. How do I know it is going to do the Pro install or does it make the changes with updates, etc. after the Pro key is recognized?
