Installing the Professional version is the solution if you actually purchased the Professional ISO in box. Otherwise, when you download the ISO from the web, it behaves like the Home edition and doesn't even give you the option to bypass that stuff. For example, I have a key of 10 Pro that I bought. If I don't mind going through 10 first, I can bypass the Microsoft account requirement. Otherwise, I have to rely on the web ISO which doesn't grant me that luxury. -- God be with you, CrudeSausage John 14:6
