Microsoft has managed to stun critics with the launch of Windows 10, which had the smart look of Windows 8.1 but with better features and a much-improved interface. Windows 10 has two variants that you can consider – Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 home. The Pro edition of Windows 10 is designed for professionals, and while it includes all the features of the Home edition, it also other tools, such as Bitlocker, Assigned Access 8.1, Enterprise Mode Internet Explorer (EMIE) and so on. You also get access to Remote Desktop. If you want to use this version, you have to buy Windows 10 Pro key.
In this post, we are discussing everything you must know about downloading and activating this OS.
The basics
To use Windows 10 Pro, you need an internet connection and must download and install the OS as per instructions. You can find many guides online or can check the official website of Microsoft to know more. You can download and start using the OS, but you will be prompted to Activate Windows, which requires a key. Windows 10 Pro key is a digital license that’s required to use the full version of the OS, and one key works for one system only. You can buy the key from Microsoft’s store, or else, check for websites that offer keys at a discount. These are basically services that work with resellers and buy retail keys in bulk, so you get a price that’s lower than the usual price.
Activating Windows 10 Pro
Once you choose to buy Windows 10 Pro, you can make the payment, and the key will be sent to the registered email. Make sure that the key works for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. You can go to the settings section of your computer and find the “Update & Security” tab, where you will find the choice of entering the key. When done, your Pro version of Windows will be activated immediately, and you don’t need to pay further for updates. Please note that only a key that’s meant for the Pro version will work for your system. In short, you cannot buy a Windows 10 Home key and use it for Pro.
With activated Windows 10 Pro, you can actually make the most of the new OS that Microsoft promises to be better than most previous versions. In all ways, the Pro variant is a clear winner.
