Can I upgrade to windows 10 pro?

You will have the chance to upgrade to 10 via windows update if you registered/register to get the upgrade. It will downloaditself and after it's complete you will be able to upgrade your 8.1 pro to 10 pro.

Copied this:

"By default, Windows 10 builds are pre-keyed, meaning, you do not have to enter a product key and should not be prompted to enter one even after Windows 10 has completed setup if you upgraded from a activated Windows 7 or Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 license."

from here

Other parts of the article say, once you have upgraded to 10 (from 7, 8, 8.1) and activated it you can reinstall competely.

Can I perform a clean install using the Free upgrade? No, it will require that you are running a previous qualifying version and start the upgrade from within the qualifying version. You can initiate a clean install after completing the Upgrade.

Which to which:

I'm not sure about the cdkey you have (if you have) for your 8.1 will work on 10. :/

1It say's you shouldn't until you upgraded once from your computer. Because you won't have cd key. – Shapperd – 2015-07-30T09:25:19.640
