I got a Windows 10 key and tried to do the normal upgrade, but got a "0xc004f050" error. I then tried to fix it by useing the generic pro key but then got a "0x803fa067" error. These are the steps the finally got everything working. I did the this on 2 PC so I think it is solid.
- buy a valid Windows 10 Pro key (any key will work)
- I got mine on Ebay for $4. It said 1 minute delivery, but it took about 1 hour to get it.
- Make sure Windows is up to date.
- Change product keys (remember these steps you will use them a lot)
- Select the Start button
- Then select Settings > Update & Security
- Then select Activation
- Click the "Change product key" button
- Generically activate windows with "YTMG3-N6DKC-DKB77-7M9GH-8HVX7"
- Reboot
- Disable your Internet
- Force the update to Pro by changing the product key to "VK7JG-NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T"
- It should reboot on its own.
- If it errors out at the end (around 100%) just reboot the PC. You should see some kind of message that it is updating the system anyways.
- When it is all done change the product key one last time to the key that you bought.
