<ul>
<li>You can find this option in the MAS extras section.</li>
<li>It can change the Windows 7-8-8.1-10-11 and their Server equivalent editions.</li>
<li>The script incorporates 4 methods for edition changing:<!-- -->
<ul>
<li>May&#x27;s DISM Api Method - Used in Windows 10/11 Core to Non-Core edition change</li>
<li><a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/upgrade/windows-edition-upgrades#upgrade-using-a-command-line-tool" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">slmgr /ipk Method</a> - Used in Windows 10/11 where edition license files are already there</li>
<li><a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/get-started/upgrade-conversion-options" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">DISM Method</a> - Used in Server 2016 and later server versions</li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/asdcorp/Set-WindowsCbsEdition" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CBS Upgrade Method</a> - Used in Windows versions before 10</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Available editions that can be changed to are shown in the script based on all these 4 options.</li>
<li>The script is future-proof, which means that it won&#x27;t need an update upon the release of new Windows / Server editions and can get the required product key from the system itself.</li>
<li>The script blocks changing to CountrySpecific, ServerRdsh, and to/from CloudEdition editions since it&#x27;s officially not supported and the user may face issues.</li>
<li>The script cannot change,<!-- -->
<ul>
<li>Non-Core editions to Core editions (For example, Pro &gt; Home isn&#x27;t available)</li>
<li>GAC editions to LTSC editions (For example, Enterprise &gt; Enterprise LTSC isn&#x27;t available)</li>
</ul>

<p>If you want to manually change the edition instead of using the script, please follow the steps below.</p>
<h3 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="windows-1011">Windows 10/11<a href="#windows-1011" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Windows 10/11" title="Direct link to Windows 10/11"></a></h3>
<ul>
<li>To view the list of available editions, open the command prompt as admin and enter<br>
<code>dism /online /english /Get-TargetEditions</code></li>
<li>Get the keys for the desired edition from <a href="/hwid#supported-products">here</a></li>
<li>If you are upgrading from Home to Pro, you will need to disable the Internet before performing the upgrade.</li>
<li>Now enter that product key with this command, replace <code>&lt;product_key&gt;</code> with the actual key.<br>
<code>changepk.exe /ProductKey &lt;product_key&gt;</code></li>
<li>In the Home to Pro upgrade, it may show an error, restart the system anyway. (Use the script if it&#x27;s still not working)</li>
<li>Activate the changed edition with MAS, that&#x27;s all.</li>
