I got a free legitimate version of Windows 10 Enterprise through my college's program for the desktop that I built, but now that I have graduated and am no longer connected to my campus's wifi, my version of Windows 10 is no longer valid and I am asked to Activate Windows. After browsing on the forums here I have heard mixed responses on whether or not I can actually downgrade from Enterprise to Pro without doing a clean install of Windows 10 and wiping my computer fresh.


I saw this forum post earlier, and it seems like it should be possible, but there were still some hiccups and I want to make sure that there are no other prerequisites that I am missing other than an official Windows 10 pro license key.


I am looking to buy an official licence key and am wondering where I can purchase one (is Amazon fine?) and if doing so will it or will it not require a full clean install - wiping my computer.


Thank you!
