Upgrade from Windows 11 Home to Pro cost
I am looking at purchasing a new Surface Pro 7+ with the 12.3" touchscreen. It comes with Windows 11 Home. I am reasonably sure I will prefer to have Pro instead. What is the cost for the activation ...

Hi PeterV959 ,
You can upgrade it directly from the Microsoft Store, just go to Settings > System > Activation.
See below the instructions and the price.
Also, you are probably buying consumer version of Surface Pro 7+, if you want to get with Pro - you can get Surface Pro 7+ Business version. Check here:
With Business version it comes with Pro already. Buy Surface Pro 7+ for Business: Ultra-light 2-in-1 - Microsoft Store
Good luck.
