About this licence
Windows 10 Pro: The Professional's Choice for Security, Control, and Productivity
Windows 10 Pro is the definitive operating system for professionals, small businesses, and power users who demand more than the basics. It builds on the familiar Windows experience with an advanced security and management toolkit designed to protect your data, streamline your workflow, and connect you seamlessly to corporate networks. This is a genuine, full Retail license, offering you a permanent, one-time purchase that stays with your device for its lifetime, without recurring subscription fees. Whether you're securing sensitive client files with BitLocker encryption, connecting to your office PC from home via Remote Desktop, or creating isolated test environments with Hyper-V, Windows 10 Pro gives you the control you need to work without compromise. It's the bridge between a personal computer and a professional workstation, enabling domain join, Group Policy management, and Azure Active Directory integration for a modern, secure, and manageable computing experience.
Key features and benefits
BitLocker Device Encryption: Protect your entire drive from unauthorised access. If your laptop is lost or stolen, BitLocker ensures your sensitive business data, client files, and personal information remain completely inaccessible without your password or recovery key, offering peace of mind that Windows 10 Home simply cannot match.
Remote Desktop Connection: Access your work PC from virtually anywhere. Whether you're travelling, working from a café, or at a different office, you can securely connect to your main computer to run applications, access files, and use network resources as if you were sitting right in front of it.
Hyper-V Virtualisation: Run multiple operating systems on a single physical machine. Developers and IT professionals can create isolated virtual machines to test software, run legacy applications, or experiment with different OS configurations in a sandboxed environment, without the need for separate hardware.
Domain Join and Group Policy Management: Seamlessly integrate with corporate networks. Connect your PC to a Windows Server domain or Azure Active Directory, allowing your IT administrator to manage security policies, deploy software, and configure settings across the entire organisation, ensuring compliance and consistency.
Assigned Access: Lock down a device to run only a single, specific application. Ideal for kiosk mode, point-of-sale systems, or public-facing terminals, this feature creates a locked-down user experience that prevents access to the desktop or any other programs, enhancing security and focus.
Enterprise Mode Internet Explorer (EMIE): Resolve compatibility issues with older web applications. Businesses relying on legacy internal websites can use EMIE to ensure these critical tools run smoothly on Windows 10 Pro, simplifying the transition from older browsers without disrupting daily operations.

Trusted Boot and Secure Boot: Defend against rootkits and boot-level malware. These features work together to verify the integrity of the operating system every time your PC starts, preventing malicious software from loading before your antivirus can even activate.
Full Retail License Flexibility: Enjoy the freedom of a genuine Retail license. Unlike an OEM license that is permanently tied to the first device it's installed on, a Retail license grants you the flexibility to transfer the license to a new PC if you replace your hardware, protecting your investment for the long term.
What's included with your purchase
When you purchase Windows 10 Pro from Lizensa, you are buying a genuine, verified Retail license. This is a permanent, one-time purchase, not a recurring subscription. Upon completion of your order, you will receive a confirmation email containing your unique 25-character product key and a direct download link to the official Microsoft installation media. This ensures you are installing a clean, unmodified version of the operating system directly from the source.
Your package also includes a comprehensive, step-by-step activation guide written by our support team. This guide covers both clean installations on a new or formatted drive and upgrades from an existing Windows edition, such as Windows 10 Home. The activation process is straightforward: download the software, enter your unique key when prompted, and your system will be permanently activated online. The license supports both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures where the product edition allows, and you can reinstall the operating system on the same device as many times as needed.
Which Windows edition is right for you?
Choosing the correct Windows edition is crucial for matching your needs without paying for features you won't use. Here is how Windows 10 Pro compares to other editions in the family:
Windows 10 Home vs. Pro: Windows 10 Home is the standard consumer edition, perfect for everyday browsing, gaming, and streaming. You should choose Windows 10 Pro if you need to join a company domain, manage devices with Group Policy, encrypt your entire drive with BitLocker, or connect to your PC remotely via Remote Desktop. Pro is the step up for professionals and small business owners who handle sensitive data and need advanced connectivity.
Windows 10 Pro vs. Enterprise: Windows 10 Enterprise is built on the Pro feature set but adds advanced security and management tools designed for large organisations with a volume licensing agreement. Features like AppLocker, DirectAccess, and BranchCache are exclusive to Enterprise. For most small to medium-sized businesses, Windows 10 Pro provides the perfect balance of security, management, and cost-effectiveness without the complexity of a volume licensing agreement.
Windows 10 Pro vs. LTSC (Long-Term Servicing Channel): The LTSC edition is a specialised, stripped-down version of Windows 10 Enterprise designed for mission-critical systems like medical equipment or ATMs that require stability and cannot tolerate frequent feature updates. It does not include the Microsoft Store, Edge browser, or Cortana. Windows 10 Pro is the correct choice for a general-purpose desktop or laptop that needs to stay current with security and feature updates while offering a full suite of modern Windows capabilities.
System requirements / compatibility
To ensure a smooth installation and optimal performance, your PC should meet the following minimum specifications. Please note that these are baseline requirements, and actual needs will vary based on your specific usage and installed applications.
Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster compatible processor or System on a Chip (SoC)
RAM: 2 GB for 64-bit systems
Storage: 2 GB of available disk space for installation
Architecture: Supports both 32-bit and 64-bit systems where the product edition allows
Graphics: DirectX 9 or later with WDDM 1.0 driver
Display: 800x600 resolution
Internet Connection: Required for initial activation and downloading updates
For the best experience, we recommend a system with 4 GB of RAM and a solid-state drive (SSD). This license supports installation in multiple languages, including English, German, French, Dutch, and Polish. Always validate your specific hardware configuration against the official Microsoft documentation before beginning your installation.
Installation and activation
Getting started with your genuine Windows 10 Pro license is a fast and simple process. Immediately after your payment is confirmed, you will receive an email containing your unique product key and a direct download link to the official Microsoft installation media. On average, our digital delivery system sends your license in under 60 seconds.
To install, simply download the media creation tool from the link provided, create a bootable USB drive or DVD, and run the setup. When prompted, enter the 25-character product key from your email. Your system will connect to Microsoft's activation servers to validate the key and permanently activate your copy of Windows 10 Pro. Our included activation guide provides clear, illustrated steps for both a fresh installation and an upgrade from a previous version.
If you encounter any issues during activation, our free multilingual technical support team is ready to assist. This Retail license allows you to reinstall Windows on the same device as many times as needed, and it can be transferred to a new PC should you replace your hardware in the future.

FAQ — frequently asked questions
Is this a subscription or a one-time purchase?
This is a permanent, one-time purchase of a Windows 10 Pro Retail license. There are no monthly or annual fees, and the license does not expire. It is yours to use for the lifetime of the device.
What is the difference between a Retail and an OEM license?
A Retail license, like this one, is transferable. If you buy a new PC, you can move the license to the new hardware. An OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) license is pre-installed on a new computer and is permanently tied to the first device it is activated on, making it non-transferable.
How fast do I get my license key?
Our system delivers your license key and download link by email automatically, typically in under 60 seconds after your payment is confirmed. You can also access your license instantly in your Lizensa customer account.
Is this a genuine and legal license?
Absolutely. Every license we sell is sourced from authorised European distributors and is 100% genuine and verified by Microsoft. You will receive a unique product key that passes online activation and any software audit.
What if I have trouble activating Windows?
If you encounter an activation error, our free multilingual technical support team is available to help. Often, issues can be resolved quickly by following the troubleshooting steps in our included activation guide, but we are here to provide direct assistance if needed.
Can I reinstall Windows or transfer the license to a new PC?
Yes. You can reinstall Windows 10 Pro on the same device as many times as you need. As a Retail license, you are also entitled to transfer it to a different PC, provided you remove it from the old device first.
Does this license work in my country?
Yes, your Windows 10 Pro license is valid for activation and use in all 27 EU member states. It is not region-locked within the European Union.

Can I upgrade from Windows 10 Home to Pro with this license?
Yes, you can. You can use this license to upgrade an existing, activated copy of Windows 10 Home to Pro without losing your files or applications. The process is covered in our step-by-step activation guide.
Will this license work for a fresh installation on a new PC I built myself?
