Upgrade to windows 11 Pro from unlicensed Home version
Hi I have build a computer and I downloaded unlicensed Windows 11 Home to a usb drive (from microsoft) and installed it as operative system. Then my manager bought a 11 pro license key (misunderstood each other) instead of windows 11 home license key. Now I try to write in the 11 pro license key but it doesn't work. I get an error message when I push next. I thought it would upgrade to pro automatically. So my question is: does this not work? what should I do? I don't want to reformat the computer since I have bought office package and another program.
Windows Server Licensing
Hello, We’re currently reviewing our licensing options before migrating VMs to Azure. At the moment, we have Azure Hybrid Benefits, and we also have some free Windows Server Standard licenses available through the Partner Center. Could we apply these standard licenses to cover VM cores, even though only Datacenter version images appear available when creating a VM in the Azure portal? The documentation isn’t entirely clear on this, and I’ve come across conflicting information online. ref: You need a minimum of 8 core licenses (Datacenter or Standard edition) per VM. Thank you!Windows 11 24H2 got my pc down
After installing the latest 11 on my laptop .I tried to rename my PC and then the laptop didnt switch on, then I tried to recover the PC to a windows 10 since i didnt have up to 4GB for installing 11 package but unknowingly for me after that all my PC's memory went and sinve then I have been trying to restore it through a restore point until the laptop started displaying this. Since then I haven't been able to turn mybpc on. I will love if you can guide me through how to recover my PC back to its initial state where it was using (Win 11 pro and with all my memory restored). I have tried every possible thing to restore and switch it on but it isnt switching on at all. Thank you .Pls this is urgent
Conditional policies to access to SharePoint and Files (not Apps)
Hi Team!! I'm looking for a way to restrict SharePoint access from outside of my office network (typically using the static public IP address). My understanding is that to do so, I require configuring conditional access policies in Azure (which in turn requires Entra ID P1 license for each user). Is my understanding correct? If so, do I have to licenses each and every user to do so? And the other clarifications I'm looking for is; Does conditional access policy apply universally to all users when enabled? or only to those with Entra ID P1 license? Reason for this clarification is that I tried applying this using a trial license by setting up a policy to block SharePoint access outside our office network but it ended up applying to all users instead of the ones with trial license assigned. Further I noticed that, when setting this policy blocks the entire Microsoft Teams app as well, where as my objective is to limit access to the files in Teams as they are part of the SharePoint. Is there a way to control access to SharePoint files in Teams without blocking the whole Teams app? Do let me know if I'm doing something wrong here?

License for Multi Tenant Setup
Scenario: User R is part of Tenant A and have M365 License. Tenant A & B are cross sync. Whether User R would need M365 license from Tenant B to operate on files stored in Tenant B? Scenario: User M is the external guest to Tenant B. Whether User M would need M365 license from Tenant B to operate on files stored in Tenant B?

Hi everyone, if anyone is looking for volume licensing downloads, keys etc. there's a significant change. While most Windows devices out there are licensed through OEM nowaways there are exceptions for upgrade licenses such as Windows Enterprise or other SKUs that may be part of Volume Licensing. Here's a brief blogpost on this important change.
