Windows 10: Windows 11 Education Edition Reactivation

Hi, I've got the problem with my motherboard from gigabyte and am planning to make the hardware change. I know that Microsoft has the reactivation process, but am not sure if I can do that with my edition.

Some questions on upgrading to Windows 11 Education Edition.

Recently I had a bit of a BSOD issue with my old Windows 11 Home laptop, so I wanted a fresh install of Windows 11.

My college website offers a Windows 11 Education edition key. I got it, mainly to use Bitlocker and ReFS.

My questions are:

a.) Can I keep Education edition on my laptop after I graduate?

b.) How long is my product key valid for?

c.) How many devices can I upgrade to Education edition with one key? I would like to update my desktop rig as well.

d.) Will I get access to new Education editions with new versions of Windows with this key?

e.) How do I downgrade back to Home edition if I so desire? It seems that I can default to home edition with my MS account on a new install without providing a key for it.

Thank you very much if you answer my questions.

 

Change from Windows 10 Education edition to Windows 10 Professional

Windows 10 Education is an academic edition of Windows 10 used in schools. Features like Cortana are removed because of the environment it is used in.

Windows 10 Pro Education builds on the commercial version of Windows 10 Pro and provides important management controls needed in schools. Windows 10 Pro Education is effectively a variant of Windows 10 Pro that provides education-specific default settings,
including the removal of Cortana1. These default settings disable tips, tricks and suggestions & Windows Store suggestions.

Windows 10 editions for education customers - Windows Education

If you want to downgrade to the Windows 10 Pro edition, you will need to perform a clean install and you will need a unique product key to install it. The Windows 10 Pro Edu or Windows 10 Education key will not activate Windows 10 Pro.

If you don't have a license for Windows 10 Pro, you will either need to request it from the institution you got Windows 10 Education; or you will have to purchase a license for Pro, then perform a clean install.

Step 1: Buy Windows 10 Home/Pro

Step 2: How to: Perform a clean install of Windows 10

Hello! I have Question About Windows Editions, specificly about Windows Edition Comparisons.

I Already Did Read Refrence Link:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us...ustomers-bf2572aa-5555-2b1e-f7ce-81e8ba890444

But it does not give more information. So Are There Any Special Features or Other Things that Are Present in These Windows 10 Editions: Enterprise, Education & Pro Education.

1. Are Pro Education & Education the Same Windows Edition(Exeptions: One is Build on Windows Pro & Other is built on Windows Enterprise! And Licensing) or Are There Some Things That Are in Pro Education BUT Missing in Education Edition.

2. And Are These Both: Education & Pro Education same as Windows Enterprise(Not LTSC "Long Term Servicing Channel") in Features(not licensing) Or Are There Some Things that Are Only Exclusive to Education, Pro Education & Enterprise.

Im a Simple Term:

1. Are Windows Pro Education & Education Editions same or are there something special that is in Education Edition & Pro Education Edition.

2. And Can Windows Pro Education & Education Edition be considered as Enterprise/Buisness Edition in Windows( Or Are They Close enough to be In Some Parts Considered as Enterprise Edition)

3. And Since I would ask this Eventualy But Can Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC & Windows Server be Considered as One Same Edition in some terms? Or is There Something That Is Only in LTSC/WindowsServer*
