What's the difference between Windows 11 Pro and Enterprise?
Enterprise includes everything in Pro and adds security and management features for organisations that manage many PCs centrally. For a single home or small-office PC, Pro is usually enough. Enterprise makes sense when an IT team needs features such as Credential Guard or AppLocker.
| Feature | Windows 11 Pro | Windows 11 Enterprise |
|---|---|---|
| BitLocker drive encryption | Yes | Yes |
| Windows Sandbox | Yes | Yes |
| App Control for Business (WDAC) | Yes | Yes |
| Credential Guard | No | Yes |
| AppLocker | No | Yes |
| Always On VPN device tunnel | No | Yes |
| Personal Data Encryption | No | Yes |
Credential Guard uses virtualisation-based security to isolate sign-in secrets, which makes credential-theft attacks much harder. AppLocker lets IT decide which apps and scripts users are allowed to run.
Enterprise is normally set up by upgrading a Pro PC. Microsoft supports switching from Pro to Enterprise by entering an Enterprise product key, with no reinstall.
How many PCs can I activate with this Windows 11 Enterprise key?
One. This listing is a single-PC licence, so the key activates Windows 11 Enterprise on one computer. If you need to cover several PCs, the 5 PC and 20 PC versions of this listing license them in a single order.
What are the system requirements for Windows 11 Enterprise?
Windows 11 Enterprise needs a compatible 64-bit processor, 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB of storage, UEFI with Secure Boot, and TPM 2.0. These are Microsoft's minimums, and the same rules apply to Windows 11 Home, Pro and Enterprise. Most PCs from the last few years meet them, but older machines often fail on the TPM 2.0 or processor check.
| Component | Minimum requirement |
|---|---|
| Processor | 1 GHz or faster, 2 or more cores, compatible 64-bit CPU or SoC |
| Memory (RAM) | 4 GB or more |
| Storage | 64 GB or more |
| System firmware | UEFI, Secure Boot capable |
| Security chip | TPM version 2.0 |
| Graphics | DirectX 12 compatible, WDDM 2.0 driver |
| Display | 720p (HD), larger than 9" diagonal |
| Internet | Needed for activation, updates and some features |

How do I activate Windows 11 Enterprise?
The usual route is to start from Windows 11 Pro. Entering an Enterprise key switches the edition to Enterprise in place, and Microsoft doesn't require a reinstall for this change. On a new PC, install Windows 11 from the download link in your email first.
- Check that the PC runs Windows 11 Pro: press Windows + R and run
winver. - Open Settings → System → Activation.
- Select Change product key.
- Enter the 25-character key from your order email and select Next.
- Check that Activation shows Windows 11 Enterprise and says Windows is activated.
A common mistake we see is trying this on Windows 11 Home. Microsoft doesn't support switching Home straight to Enterprise with a key, so upgrade to Pro first or do a clean install.
Frequently asked questions
Can I install Windows 11 Enterprise on a Home PC?
Not directly with a key. Microsoft doesn't support switching from Home to Enterprise by entering a product key. Upgrade the PC to Pro first, or do a clean install of Enterprise using the download link in your order email.
Is Windows 11 Enterprise the same as Enterprise LTSC?
No. Regular Enterprise gets feature updates and includes the in-box apps and Microsoft Store. Enterprise LTSC is a separate, feature-frozen release with fewer apps, meant for special-purpose devices. Their product keys aren't interchangeable.
Does Windows 11 Enterprise get feature updates?
Yes. Like Pro, Windows 11 Enterprise receives feature updates through Windows Update as well as monthly security updates. IT teams can delay or control them with policies, which is one reason businesses choose it.
Do I keep my files when switching from Pro to Enterprise?
Yes. Entering an Enterprise key on a Pro PC is an in-place edition change, so files, apps and settings stay where they are. Microsoft doesn't require a reinstall for this switch, though a backup beforehand is always sensible.
