Do you have an IT department? Go explain to them how you fucked up and used a Windows key from a pirate website on your work laptop and risked the company’s reputation and a possible lawsuit from a tech giant and how you wish to unfuck things before it’s too late or lose your job.
Fucking hell man. That was a dumb move. I hope you learn a lesson from this.
I guess their company might have a BYOD policy… Damn I hope that’s the case.
That was a dumb move to force an upgrade on a work laptop. There I said it and I feel better.
Were you able to set the Hwid back to Windoes 10 pro?
Why on earth would you fuck with a work laptop. You do not own that and could very easily lose your job over it.
My dude, never mess with work equipment. Own up to your mistakes with the IT department, and they can fix it on their end.
Put Linux on it and pretend it’s never happened /s
I hope your IT department has a sense of humor lol
Does your work IT department not manage their laptops? Are they not going to come asking why your system is unmanageable?
Use the same script to unlock Pro. Windows is automatically picking Home because it was most recently activated that way. You could also add a file onto the USB you used to install Windows with to force to show you a selection menu of various Windows variations (ie Home, Pro, Education, etc) and then pick Pro there. The preinstalled key should still be on the machine.
Best guess I have is to install home, run MAS again to activate a pro key, upgrade to pro inside windows.
Probably a better way, but that one should work. I was able to upgrade from home to pro this way.
