    Hello,

    I installed windows 10 pro using a consumer iso. Does that mean I can not use KMS? Do I need to anything like retail to volume conversion?

    Your system is Volume if you install the gVLK key. That’s the conversion, which many scripts do automatically.
    So you can use whatever ISO you want, consumer comes with Generic Key preinstalled and business comes with gVLK (Generic Volume Licensing Key) preinstalled. But you can easily switch them.

    Edit: sorry for the „spam“, I have only edge internet here and had to press the button multiple times, sorry.
