Hi, I have a new Spectre x360 13-4116dx and woud like to install Windows 10 Professional. I wiped the harddrive and used a new Windows 10 Profeesional installation disk. After the install completed I checked the activation and it says: Windows 10 Home - Digital License. Does anybody know how to get Win 10 Professional on this machine? Thank you for your help!!!

Dear Banhien, thank you for your prompt help! I did purchase a new Windows 10 Pro license, but the rgular install etc. did not work. Was not aware about the upgrade option within settings -this seems to work. It's currently working on it ... Thanks again!
