Micrsoft Evaluation Center offers evaluation version for you to have a free trial to exploring technical stuff easily. But if you test an
evaluation version of Windows 10 and decided to upgrade to the full version, you will face a stumbling block. The evaluation
version offered is of the Enterprise edition but Microsoft doesn’t support any way to convert the evaluation version to a fully
licensed version of Windows 10 Enterprise or Windows 11 Enterprise edition!

4. Boot your machine using this usb stick and follow regular steps to get this latest Windows 10 LTSC evaluation installed.
Unfortunately, it will be evaluation version and you won't be able to change the product key to activate it just like you do for other
version of Win10. Even you try to change prodction license code, you wont be able to get the result you want.

5. Now lets get it upgraded to Full version so you do not have to reinstall everything from scratch.
Note: because it is evaluation verison, DISM command for upgrading to full version wont work on Windows 10. We can use
following special ways to get it upgraded. Basically we just need to replace the skus folder's content using a special one.
Here are some steps you can do to change evaulation version to full version:
1 Press Win+R command
Then enter: C:WindowsSystem32spptokensskus
Upgrade Steps

6. You can use this command to check system version: wmic os get caption
C:Usersnetsec>wmic os get caption
Caption
Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC Evaluation
Or you can use dism command: (run it in the administrator mode)
Right click on Terminal icon then select Run as administrator

7. C:Windowssystem32>dism /online /get-currentedition
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.19041.844
Image Version: 10.0.19044.1288
