  1. windows 10/11 upgrade to pro question


    I had a three year old gaming laptop that i upgraded from home to pro. unfortunetly, that system suffered an unrecoverable hardware failure. I have purchased new gaming laptop which also came with win 10 home. the previous system is completely kaput. it won't even boot, I am going to have to extract the drives to recover my data from it. is it possible to use the upgrade to windows pro that i purchased for the previous laptop with the new laptop?

    :)

    Windows 11 Pro Upgrade from Windows 10 Pro Edition

    No but after it installed the malfunctioning Windows 11 upgrade it was listed as Windows 11 Pro. Microsoft Windows support advised I reinstall Windows 10 Pro and said that Windows 11 is really only meant for new PC's that come with it preinstalled. MSI website doesn't list my 2020 GT76 Titan dt-039 notebook on their Windows 11 upgrade eligibility list so I guess that's why the Windows 11 Pro upgrade failed. I suggest being careful with trying the Windows 11 upgrade despite it stating my notebook was capable of running Windows 11 it was wrong. Luckily I have the original Windows 10 Pro USB Flash drive because the Windows 11 Pro upgrade was so incomplete I had no way of reverting notebook back to Windows 10 without reinstalling from a USB Flash.
