Hi,
I have a retail version of Windows 8 Pro on a cd-rom with the corresponding key.. This is installed on an older laptop.
A few months ago, I bought a new computer from CybertronPC. The computer came with an OEM key of the basic version of Windows 8.
With the Windows 10 upgrade coming soon, I would like to, of course, have the Pro version of Windows on my desktop, instead of my laptop.
Is it possible for me to swap the Windows 8 Pro (retail) key with my desktop's (OEM) key?
The main reasons I want to have the Pro version follow:
Many thanks,
Ben (bnr0723)

- BitLocker
- Controlled updates
