  1. Win 10 Pro transfer to a new drive.


    I am running Win 10 Pro and my system disk is starting to fail 100% active constantly. I still have access but it is extremely slow. How do I transfer my Win 10 pro to a new drive? I have tried using a recovery usb but Win 10 home loaded instead of win 10 pro. How do I either start again or how do I upgrade to Win 10 pro?

    :)

  2. Transfer Win 10 license to a new PC

    Hello,

    I bought a new PC and read that I can transfer my Windows 10 license to it and I have a few questions.

    #1

    Few years ago I used Win 7 Pro license to install my two PC's.

    When FREE update came I upgraded both of them to Windows 10 x64 PRO.

    Yesterday I assembled a new PC which will replace one of them and I want to transfer the license to it from the one it is replacing.

    The question is if I transfer the activation license will I lose the activation on the second PC or not?

    What are the steps to do the actual license transfer?

  3. Transfer Win 10 Pro Licence to a new Win 10 Home PC

    I bought a Laptop with Win 7 in July 2012.

    In January, 2013, I bought a Win 8 Pro licence through the promotion that was running at the time.

    I have since update the original Win 7 PC, to Win 8 Pro, to Win 10 Pro and it now is running Win 10 update 1903.

    I bought a new laptop with Win 10 Home this week. I will be retiring the original Laptop purchased in 2012.

    Can I transfer my Win 10 Pro licence on the retired laptop to the new Laptop ?

    I am getting mixed answers from the Sales people.

  4. Win 10 Pro transfer to a new drive.

    How to transfer Windows 10/11 Pro upgrade license to another machine?

    Hello ViatcheslavR1,

    I am Jaspreet Singh an independent advisor.

    Follow the steps listed here and unlink your license from old system: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-transfer-win...

    Then download windows 10 pro via the media creator tool from here : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    Install it as an upgrade on the new system and skip when asked for a key. Login with the account that purchased the home to pro upgrade and the digital license should be linked to this machine.
