Windows 10: WINDOWS 10 PRO FOR WORKSTATIONS ACTIVATION

I recently bought a Lenovo P51 mobile workstation which had a pre installed windows 10 pro for workstations key. Due to some software issues, i had to format my laptop and after a clean installation of windows 10 pro, I entered the original key that came in BIOS ( I had used Nirsoft product key finder to find out my BIOS key & my win 10 pro for workstations key before formatting my laptop). Windows shows as 'activated', however the product is shown as Windows 10 pro.


So which version of windows is running on my laptop- Windows 10 pro or windows 10 pro for workstations ?


In case it is windows 10 pro, then how do I get my windows 10 pro for workstations version back ?

Windows 10 Pro for Workstations?

Windows Pro for Workstations is available in the Store but you have to search the Store on "Windows 10" to find the page. It is $205.00 for Home to Pro for Workstations and $125.00 for Pro to Pro for Workstations. There is supposed to be a Go to Store
link in the Pro activation page in Settings but MSFT forgot to insert it. The Go to Store link in Home only leads to the upgrade to Pro so MSFT left out something there too. Hopefully, that is fixed soon.

 

how to install and download the new windows 10 pro workstation


I've done a couple of clean installs, both with the MCT ISO and my Visual Studio Subscription ISO, Windows 10 Pro Workstation was not listed as an option. Pro and Pro N were listed but no Workstation. On one of my Pro installs I did a change product key, entered one of my MSDN Pro Workstation Keys and it switched to Pro Workstation and activated with a Digital License. I have no idea how you clean install it though?
