    Win 10 to Win 11 upgrade >>> What happens to digital license?


    Hello,I am planning to upgrade my Win 10 Pro machine to Win 11 Pro. I currently have a digital license.If, say six month from now, I decided I was not a fan of Win 11 and wanted to go back to Win 10, would that be possible? If I fully formatted my machine, and installed a fresh copy of Win 10 Pro on it, would my digital license still work for Win 10 Pro. Or would it only work for Win 11 Pro at this point?Thanks for any help or answers you can provide.

    :)

    SCCM: In Place upgrade Win 7to win 10 1903 License issue

    I was working on one task sequence for In Place Upgrade. Win 10 1709 to Win 10 1903 is working fine.

    But Win 7 to Win 10 1903 is getting failed during Upgrade Operating System step.

    I checked some of the links and added the KMS Client Keys (NPPR9-FWDCX-D2C8J-H872K-2YT43) in upgrade operating system step.

    Also added one step to run vbs script.

    But Task Sequence is getting failed at this step.

    Command line Cscript.exe c:\windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ipk NPPR9-FWDCX-D2C8J-H872K-2YT43 returned 3221549136

    In my environment, we are using KMS and we don't have a Volume license.

    Any advise how to resolve this issue.

  3. Win 10 Home to Pro upgrade

    How do I upgrade from Win 10 Home to Win 10 Pro with a digital Licence. The in structions say

    • If you have a digital license for Windows 10 Pro, and Windows 10 Home is currently activated on your device, select
      Go to Microsoft Store and you'll be prompted to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro for free.

    Fine, but how do I get a digital Licence for Win 10 PRo??

    Going to Microsoft Store via the upgrade with digital licence link, provides no opton for upgrading.

    Any solution??

    Windows 10 upgrade license

    The interesting question is that: the upgrade takes place before 29 of July. If I upgrade the PC (change the MB), and I transfer the Win 8.1 license to this new PC (cause 8.1 is retail FPP), will I be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free? Or a upgrade license must be bought?
