Windows 11 Pro for Workstations is a part of Windows 365 Business. Windows for Business is offered with the MCA agreement.

However, as stated in the Windows 11 Commercial Licensing Guide, Windows 11 licenses acquired through a Microsoft Commercial Licensing program are upgrade licenses. You cannot acquire full Windows operating system licenses for desktop PCs through Microsoft Commercial Licensing programs.

Customers must first have licensed and installed a Qualifying Operating System on a device before the device is eligible for a Windows 11 upgrade license.
