Since I bought it I try several times to install it and go through the installation process and it never updated the system to Windows 11 pro, the computer still shows the home version. Once I introduce the product key I always get the same error (0xc004f050). This happened in 2 different systems; as the license key was never activated. I've tried several options I found on the internet, all what Microsoft indicates on their support website, and still not working. Any solution?

Answer

I think the problem is that’s an OEM license. It can only be used to make a fresh install. You cannot update from Home. Moreover, the license key will be linked to your pc so you won’t be able to transfer it to a new computer in the future. I didn’t know either that I bought an OEM version.
