HI ALL
I have a question,
currently i have 4 pc's in my home origanally all running win7 ultimate hence i got free upgrade to win 10 pro.
I have just purchased a new pc with win 10 home preinstalled,can i upgrade it to pro free ?
i guess this has been asked several times and i apologise if this is so.......
Many thanks

No, you can't upgrade to Pro for free. To upgrade, you would need to purchase a Pro license: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12384/windows-10-upgrading-home-to-pro
Pro has a few more bells and whistles for Work environments. There is no real advantage to using Pro for a normal Home user: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compare
Hi,
Nope for additional 120.us you can do an inplace upgrade to 10 pro though from the MS store.
Thank you all very much,i was hoping i could use one of the activation codes from my other installs but that looks by the by....but thanks for your responses
Many thanks

Being upgrades from 7 Ultimate they'd all have been given the generic 10 Pro key, the one ending in -3V66T
I think ozzie just wants the new machine to be exactly the same as the other four as far as Settings is concerned - makes life easier not having to learn the differences :)
