windows update to pro

I upgraded to Windows 11 Pro purchased through a source outside of Dell. Is there a way to let the Dell Support Recovery Assistant know this? It's only letting me download the Windows 11 home. Thanks!

    Download Win11 Pro from the Microsoft site.

    your Dell oem product key in 3020 bios is for 11 home

    MS download installation media will automatically install 11 home without asking you to choose

    there is way to modify the Win 11 installation media to bypass the automatic bios product key option.

    you can choose then to install Win 11 Pro.  if you bought a retail 11 Pro key from third party you can use that to activate 11 Pro.
