How to Downgrade Windows 11 Professional to Windows 11 Home

Sign Up For Community Solar!

In this video we go over how to downgrade Windows 11 from Professional to Home Edition. This can be useful if you installed Pro but do not have a product key to activate it. You can switch to home edition and use your product key to activate that version without losing any of your files, settings, or other data. It works just like an upgrade but you aren't upgrading your downgrading.

For Windows 11 Home Single Language:
Change EditionID to Home SL
Change Product Name to Windows 10 Home SL

I had to do this because I bought the wrong key 😭 I bought home instead of pro for my windows so I had to switch 😭

Fantastic guide, straightforward and useful. Worked perfectly on my wife's laptop; activated without issues too as she was using a digital license :)
Can't believe Microsoft doesn't make it simpler or more intuitive for the average consumer - even their help page doesn't suggest the right things, and it was triggering Windows 11 Pro instead via the Creation Tool!

Just wanted to re comment. This worked. Thank you so much! I thought it was over 😂. I appreciate this once again!

I have a digital license for Windows 11 Home and inactivated Windows 11 Pro is installed on my laptop. Will it work in that case?

Edit: I did it and it went smooth as butter. The reinstallation took less than 30 mins. Had been stuck with a digital license for 6 months. Thanks sooo much bro!

It worked, but I had to run update overnight, was kinda stuck at 73%, but the next day, it was finished

Thanks you sooo much bro!
❤❤❤ My problem is "I found a generic Windows 11 Pro product jey from Telegram but i didn't know it wouldn't active the windows account and i won't get many features, but unfortunately I used the key and suffered, saw so many vidoes how to get the original product key and switch back to windows 11 Home. Finally saw your video did every step, before this remove the generic Pro product key using cmd commands, then followed this video and then activated the account " Again thank u bro ❤❤

a few questions, after doing the o.s swap, what happens to the pro version? is it automatically erased, overwritten or is it moved aside? do we need to delete it manually? if so, where to find it? also, can you do a video on converting w-10 pro to w-11 home? thanks. 👍

[wspwspwspwspwsp]

Hey man you probably wont see this but would it completely erase all my data? I'm saying apps, settings, programs, and personal files?

Thanks Sir Tek411, I follow your video, but I wanted to downgrade to W11 Home Single Language because I used to had W10 Home Single Language, because I just write in the Register Editor W 11 Home and Core, so i could installed just the Home, but I lost the mouse and keyboard drivers, but sucessfully recognize other keyboard and mouse so I could finish the installation. what do you think about the difference between home and single language. I didn¨t find any video that teached me about it ?? what do you think . afortunately I didn"t lost my digital activation from Windows. Thanks your comments.
