Windows 10: Windows 10 home to windows 10 pro

I purchased the Windows 10 Pro license through the MS friends and family offer. I tried to use the link in the email to update my Windows 10 Home which came pre-installed on my Dell Inspiron. After some time it hangs. Tried that a couple of times and then tried changing the product key through the Activation option in Settings. I keep getting the error:Unable to upgrade your editionSomething interrupted our trouble shooting. Make sure you're connected to the internet, wait a few minutes and try again. 0x8007000DInstalled Windows specs on the PC are:Edition Windows 10 Home Version 22H2 Instal

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Windows 10 Release Date Announced

Windows 10 Home will be $119, Pro $199.

Microsoft: Windows 10 Home costs $119, Pro costs $199



Which is good news actually, because Windows 8.1 is loads cheaper than previous versions (retail licensing at Windows 7 OEM prices). And it sort of puts a huge hole in the Windows subscription theory.
