How to upgrade Windows 11 Home to Pro?

[NSA652190]

Dear community,

I need your help to upgrade my Windows 11 Home to Windows 11 Pro. I tried upgrading using this generic Pro edition product key VK7JG-NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T but after this I got an error and can’t complete this upgrade. Please help me to complete this upgrade.

Hello @NSA652190,

You don't have to use generic product key in Windows 11 for this edition upgrade. You can directly insert your unique Windows 11 Pro product key and restart to complete upgrade.

See demonstration in this video:

Let us know if this helps!
