Answer-by-number:

1. When did you purchase the Win10 Home computer?

2. Where & when did you purchase the Win10 Pro upgrade?

3. When did you upgrade to Win10 Pro?

 

Windows 10 Home fresh install blue screens, Windows program failure and 3rd party program crashes.

Note: You may have replaced Windows 10 Enterprise with Windows 10 Pro but you didn't upgrade from Enterprise to Pro - and you're not upgrading from Win10 Pro to Win10 Home now.

 

Thanks for info, saw these mentioned a while back for $1

Hope this is still there when it comes out end of July

 

I updated now, I didnt want to risk the price going up in July *Smile

 

I had to look in "system" to find that I had the pro version, I had no idea that there was a choice.

 

Why, may I ask, anyone would be interested in the Home version of the Win 10 preview? It's free anyway, right? So what exactly are you paying your dollar for?

 

The charge is for pro. The offer is aimed at those that would only be entitled to a free Home Edition.

 

What does the pro version offer other than the ability to determine the timing of the "required" updates?

 

I would think that it isn't so different from win 8.1 or earlier versions
mostly things for work in enterprise for example ability to join domain, group policy, remote desktop host, BitLocker support, boot from VHD, hyper-v.

 

I think Bitlocker is useful for home use too - if someone steals your laptop and it has Bitlocker, you have at least some assurance that your personal data won't be easy to access.

 

Here's a really complete listing of the edition differences Windows 10 Editions Compared

 

I've just tried clicking Go To Store from an edition of Home, and it now says
"for testing only. Do not purchase"







This suggests to me that any product key you might obtain this way won't work in the final release.
