    Windows 10 Enterprise 1809 downgraded to Windows 10 Pro for work after updates


    To whom it may concern,


    My work PC requires an Enterprise copy. I had everything all set up and activated to Enterprise 1809

    On 25th Oct it required an update and updated while shut down.

    Turned on my pc and it was updated to version 2004 Windows 10 Pro without warning other than important updates completed and deactivated my license.


    I clicked the "Go back to previous version of Windows 10" it did not return back to Enterprise 1809 but gave me a Pro for work 1809 instead.


    What should I do? Don't think it is convenient to format my pc for another Enterprise reinstall

    :)

    Downgrade from Windows 10 Enterprise to Pro

    Hello,

    I need to downgrade from Windows 10 Enterprise to Windows 10 Pro.

    1. I had windows 8.1 home and upgraded to windows 10 home, using the media creation tool 1809.
    2. After windows 10 home installation , I went to Settings > Updates and Security > Activation > Go to Microsoft Store. Bought Windows 10 Pro, but instead of Install I did upgrade to workstation.
    So now I have Windows 10 Enterprise and I can't activate it, which is normal, cause I bought windows 10 Pro and not Enterprise.

    How can I downgrade it to Windows 10 Pro?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello Mohamed,

    Luckily, you can quickly downgrade from Windows 10 Enterprise to Windows 10 Pro by just changing the product key to the one for Pro.

    If you like, the tutorial below can show you step by step the procedure on how to do this.

    Downgrading Windows 10 enterprise to pro


    The procedure is a bit arcane, but I have managed to convert an Enterprise Evaluation to Pro, doing it in two steps: EnterpriseEval to Enterprise (unactivated); then Enterprise (unactivated) to Pro. Details here.

    (Note to the moderator/owner: apologies if this is not an appropriate post for this thread, in which case I thank you for deleting it. I posted only to update/correct the assertion quoted above.)
