win10 pro upgrade from win10 home
I'm upgrading my home edition to pro which I have done before with other win10 home pc's, don't need or want the hassle of a new install.
I got a win10 pro, its the full pkg, with an install cd.
first I did the change key with the generic win 10 pro key, reboot, and then change key again to the new win10 pro, got the success message. however after checking system status with showkeyplus, it reports I have win10 pro but with a completely different key from the win10 pro I bought and installed. and has the message:
"* Default key - requires a Digital License for activation"
not sure where this has gone askew or if there is some other step in this simple process I'm missing
