I want to upgrade from Windows 10 Home (which came pre-installed with the HP Spectre laptop) to Windows 10 Professional so I can run Virtual Machines. I think I can do this on the activation tab, but it crashes. This is in the event log.

    VWware Player runs very well on Home editions of Windows. It is free for home, non-commercial use. The latest releases are for 64-bit Windows only, though earlier versions can be found which ran on 32-bit.

  • If you already bought a license, contact Microsoft. This could be a bug.

  • @DanielB Everything came pre-installed with the computer. I didn't buy Windows 10 Home or Pro directly

  • create a crash dump and share the dmp. I'll analyze it and look if I can see anything useful.

This was fixed with the 'Creators Update', but the 'Creators Update' would not install in the normal fashion, I had to download it manually first.
