Windows 10: Windows 10 laptop with wrong windows edition

A friend's laptop had windows 10 re-installed by a computer shop, but they put in the wrong one. Installed PRO and the machine has a digital licence for HOME. Cannot activate it, of course. He asked me to help, and has purchased a boxed full copy of Windows 10 home (microsoft usb & correct new product key). Trying to install and revert the machine back to Windows 10 home. Could not get the usb to work, error about corrupt driver but no other helpful message. I have downloaded a Windows 10 ISO from Microsoft hoping I can install this and put in the correct product key, but laptop won't boot from the usb. Anyone help?

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
