Hello people I have recently changed my CPU, Motherboard and RAMs so I was planning on reinstalling windows on my PC. Last time I installed Windows was probably or so 10 years ago and I can't remember for the life of me how I activated it.

Any recommendations on activating the new install? Or is it too much trouble nowadays and should I just buy a key?

How do you upgrade to pro? I installed home because I was thinking of using my existing win7 key, then though better and activated the other way (because the old computer is still in use by mum - she gets my castoffs lol). But I would have installed pro if I knew I'll want to keep the win7...

Open windows poweshell - type in "irm https://massgrave.dev/get | iex" (without quotes) - when the menu comes up press "6" - in the next menu press "1" - in the next menu press the number that corresponds to the edition that you would like.
