5.0 out of 5 stars Worked with a call to Microsoft Global Technical Support

My first attempt at using the Product Key resulted in the system saying the Key was INVALID. Microsoft said the key was generic used by millions of others and that I should ask for a refund. But then I ran a command as administrator that reset the product key. After I did that the Amazon key worked, Windows 11 Pro components were downloaded, and most important, was able to ACTIVATE as a legit Windows 11 Pro install.

My advice is do a lot of research before you buy this product. Amazon policy is very clear, NO REFUNDS for this purchase. If the Product Key Amazon sends doesn't work, contact Microsoft Global Technical Support. They will help you fix the problem.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a true UPGRADE key!
Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2022
Ungraded from Windows 11 Home on my new i9 intel processor system. Beware though that the 22H2 update should not be downloaded since it will cause your system to be unusable dure to the disk usage going up to 100% for not reason. It keeps the system so busy it just is not usable. The 22H2 version hopefully will be fixed but for the time being be careful with that version of Win 11 PRO

UPDATE:

This key is NOT a true upgrade key. Microsoft has debugged a update windows issue I have had since I last wrote this review. The key is a RTM/OEM key that is only to be installed in the Manufacturing of a new PC or Laptop. This key will cause issue when you need to reinstall windows 11 Pro. The reinstall process will not let you keep your Apps and files and Settings so you have to wipe clean your C drive and start over. A true upgrade key will allow you to keep all of your Apps, Settings, and files. Even if you do a complete reinstall with this key RTM type key it may conflict with the original RTM key that was installed in your PC when it was first shipped.

Bottom line, DO NOT BUY THIS KEY SINCE IT IS NOT A TRUE UPGRADE KEY.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy Way To Upgrade to Win11 Pro
Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2024
My Win11 Home Edition box had some limitations to it, so It was great to see I could just purchase from Microsoft Direct a single new license to upgrade this box to full PRO version.

That allows me to have Remote Desktop, but most importantly, BitLocker encryption
(along with several other Pro-only features)

Easy to upgrade... took about 30 seconds from the time I bought it... download, enter the key into the machine, and *Poof* the Pro Fairy Godmother descended and labeled me "Pro!"

Simple! Easy! Excellent!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fast, easy way to upgrade from Windows 11 Home

I have a laptop with Windows 11 Home that I wanted to upgrade to Windows 11 Pro, and I didn't want to deal with the hassle of getting the upgrade from the Microsoft Store. Getting the upgrade from Amazon instead was a great solution - I received the product key within 5 minutes of purchase. After copying & pasting the product key into the Activation section of Windows, it rebooted to install the Pro features and not 5 minutes later, it was finished and I was good to go.

4.0 out of 5 stars upgraded from Home

Not a big Microsoft fan anymore. Too many un-asked for changes every time you update. Also, too many sales pitches especially 365 which I have no need for.

Looking at the prices of windows pro laptops, I decided to upgrade a fairly new Home laptop instead.

Serves the purpose and didn't have to spend 5 times as much for a new Pro laptop.
