Ok guys, I need some help. I tried calling Microsoft, and she said I can reformat and do what I am asking, but she did not sound sure at all, and I am not convinced before I undertake this task.
I own three computers, all are on windows 10, two are pro, and one is home. Essentially, I want to switch two of the computers to get the pro license on my laptop, and put the home license on my garage computer I dont use often.
I need the remote desktop function on my laptop. The two pro licenses I have are from the free upgrades of my owned windows 8 pro upgrade. The windows 10 home license is the free upgrade from my asus laptop that had 8 home.
I think the problem I am going to encounter is my laptop is newer than my old computers and has the uefi bios, with the embedded key for home?
Is there any way I can actually do this? Also, can I do it without having to reformat. I am not sure if i should just pay the 99 bucks to upgrade my one key and have them all pro, but 100 bucks is 100 bucks and I do own 2 pro licenses.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
*edit* i used the program speccy to find my win 10 key
Thanks
