I have Windows 8.1 Pro installed and activated (of course with a legit key) and I want to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro.

Everywhere I read about the upgrade it says I'm suppose to get the Pro version of Windows 10 because I got the Pro version of Windows 8.1. But this doesn't happen, but instead I get the Home version. Why?

I'm upgrading from Microsoft's web page.

Karl,

Edited:

Sorry about Ingored the orignal question, for the reason why it upgrade to Windows 10 home edition, it might be related with the original version which is pre-installed on your machine. You may need to contact the manufacturer to confirm this.

If you have the valid Windows 8.1 professional product key, then you could use that key to upgrade to Windows 10 professional from Windows 10 home:

Upgrading Windows 10 Home to Windows 10 Pro

This requires the system to be under Windows 10 1511 version. If the key not work, you may contact the re-seller, or Microsoft support.
