We have a user who purchased a laptop himself for company use, but it has Windows 10 home edition on. We need to upgrade to pro so we can join it to our domain etc etc.

When you look in the MS store, you can purchase an upgrade for £99. We do not have a corporate MS account with payment options available, and are looking to buy the upgrade via a third party supplier.

We cannot seem to find any info on retail upgrade licenses, and can only find full Pro retail licenses in the region of £150+

Do we have to purchase the edition upgrade through the store, or should be able to purchase at retail?

You can still use Windows 7/8/8.1 key to activate Windows 10 (at least one could in August 2016)

If that windows is closed, you can always use upgrade to W10 for free using version for disabled people. Still legal, but not quite morally fine, if you ask me...
