To upgrade from Windows 11 Home Edition to Windows 11 Pro, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open Settings: Click on the Start menu and then click on the Settings (gear icon) to open the Settings app.

  2. Go to Activation: In the Settings app, navigate to System > Activation.

  3. Select "Change product key": Scroll down and look for the option that says "Change product key or upgrade your edition of Windows." Click on it.

  4. Enter Product Key: You'll be prompted to enter a product key. You need a valid Windows 11 Pro product key to upgrade. If you don't have one yet, you can purchase a product key from the Microsoft Store or another authorized retailer.

  5. Follow the Instructions: After entering the product key, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the upgrade process. Your computer may need to restart during the upgrade process.

  6. Activation: Once the upgrade is complete, your computer should now be running Windows 11 Pro. You can verify this by going to Settings > System > About and checking the Windows edition.
