you have
- a win home machine [yes : HP minitower]
- is a Pro/Ultimate product key from an older version of Windows. [yes : del laptop , maar was deze retail of OEM ? ]

After you’ve successfully performed a Home-to-Pro upgrade, you can file that product key away. Your upgrade is now a digital license, attached to your unique hardware. If you perform a reinstallation of Windows, Microsoft’s activation servers will recognize the hardware and activate Windows 10 automatically.
