Windows 10: Windows 11 Upgrade on ARM system, purchased through Microsoft Store Upgrade

Windows 8 Upgrade Streamlined to 11 Clicks

For those who upgrade between succeeding versions of Microsoft Windows, the upgrade installer can be cumbersome. There are way too many prompts and clicks. Microsoft is working to make the upgrade package of its next major version of Windows, for now referred to as Windows 8, streamlined to as few as 11 clicks. The new installer will be designed to perform most of its tasks without needing user input.

Microsoft will implement a new web-delivery method, where you purchase your Windows 8 license online, and the installer downloads your soft copy to you. It is pre-fed with your 25-character product key. Microsoft's next major Windows release is slated for 2012.

Windows 11 home upgrade to Windows 11 Pro upgrade through the Microsoft store

I purchased a new laptop with Windows 10 Home already installed. It had a free upgrade to Windows 11 Home. I installed that last night and confirmed that it was installed through the settings page. Tonight, I upgraded from Windows 11 home to Windows 11 Pro through the Microsoft store using the Microsoft instructions. I paid the upgrade and confirmed that I purchased the product, but the installation failed. I now have a message on my Activation page showing the state as not active. See screen shot below. Any suggestions?
