After joining the Windows insider program, my copy of windows says it's no longer activated. I have a Windows 11 pro license, but the version is showing as Windows 11 enterprise. Any suggestions on what I need to do to fix? The PC came with Windows 11 home and I originally upgraded online to Windows 11 pro.

    You can downgrade Enterprise to Pro using generic key.

    -Disconnect your device fro inernet
    -Go to Settings / System / Activation and select Change product key
    -Enter generic key VK7JG-NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T
    -Restart and connect back to internet

    That shoud reactivate your device using license you have purchesed online.

    Note: Generic key can be use to cheange edition, but it can't be use for activating Windows.
