I check on "windows feature" folder and seemed to be missing. Then go on windows powerShell to type "dism.exe /Online /Enable-Feature:Microsoft-Hyper-V /All" and the result saying  Install the latest PowerShell for new features and improvements! https://aka.ms/PSWindows. I also enable Virtualization technology in BIOS.

Here is another screenshot of my laptop info. Please help me

Windows for business | Windows Server | Devices and deployment | Set up, install, or upgrade

    Hi Mohamed

    That is correct, the upgrade from Home to Pro is a very simple process, you enter a product key and a few changes are made to Windows, it is very quick and the upgrade will not affect your data or installed software . . .

    Hi Mohamed13WL

    I am Dave, an Independent Advisor, I will help you with this . . .

    You have Windows 10 Home installed on your PC, the Hyper-V functionality can only be enabled on these versions of Windows 10:

    Windows 10 Enterprise

    Hello Dave.

    Thanks for quick response.

    I have a few question to ask about windows 10 pro.

    1. If I install it, will my laptop be all erased, all data will lost or it will keep it safe?

    2.  My laptop was original in windows 8.1 but i upgrade it, so will it still work if my laptop was windows 8?

    1. Can  i switch back to windows 10 home and pro easily or not? Pro>Home Home>Pro   

    Thanks 

    Mohamed.

    Hi Mohamed

    If you purchase Windows 10 Pro, then yes, if Windows 10 Home was previously working on that laptop, the Pro version will work

    To upgrade form Home to Pro is just a matter of entering a product key, it is an easy process

    To downgrade back to Home, will mean you would need to backup all your data, clean install Windows 10 Home form a bootable USB, then re-install all your software and restore your data . .

    So I don't need to be worried about upgrade windows 10 home to pro. It will be safe from erased data.
