  1. Win 10 Pro Product Key


    Hello,


    I bought a laptop with an OEM version, that I subsequently upgraded to a full version installed via download.


    How do I find my product key?


    I have run CMD as an Administrator and entered wmic path SoftwareLicensingService get OA3xOriginalProductKey, but I suspect this brings up the original OEM key as the last five digits are not what I was expecting.


    In settings it says Windows is activated with a digital licence linked to your Microsoft account.


    Kind regards


    Sarah

    Why was I not asked for a product key when upgrading to Win 10?

    According to your spec you have Win 10 Pro, but perhaps that doesn't reflect your PC.

    You haven't stated which edition of Win 10 you have on this machine, nor what your Win 10 key is for.

    For example, if you already have Win 10 Pro and your key is Win 10 Home, that would be a retrograde step.

    Win 10 Pro upgrade using Win 8 Pro product key

    I just bought a new computer running Win 10 Home. When I went to upgrade to Win 10 Pro using my Win 8 Pro product key from my old computer, the upgrade wouldn't activate.

    Now I'm stuck with a bunch of error messages (mainly 0xC004C003) and am being told windows isn't activated. I can't seem to get my activated Win 10 Home back.

    I don't have a product key for the Win 10 Home because it came pre-installed. There's no product code recorded on the packaging or labelling on the device.

    So:

    How do I either

    • activate the Win Pro upgrade, or
    • Get my activated Win 10 home back?

    Win 10 Pro Product Key

    Used wrong product key for Win 10 install, got 10 Home instead of Pro

    kenOp.
    Only thing I can suggest is download Win 10 pro ISO....a repair option perhaps, where you could perhaps give the Pro product key....good luck.
