If you activated a free upgrade to Windows 11 or bought and activated Windows 11 from the Store, you have a digital license for your device. This means you can reinstall the same edition of Windows 11 that your device has a digital license for without entering a product key. During reinstallation, if you’re asked to enter a product key, you can skip this step. Windows 11 will automatically activate online after the installation is complete.

If you made a significant hardware change to your device (such as replacing the motherboard), Windows 11 might no longer be activated.

open the Windows registry and browse to this key.

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform

it will have the product key for that system there. copy it down and you can use it manually, if needed.
best of luck, Steve ..

As it is Win 10 & 11 activated for home and pro, it has a digital license for both. You don't need any key to reinstall Win 10 or 11.
The only issue is that, as it is an OEM computer and came with Win 10 home, it will install win 11 home without asking what version you want to install as BIOS will say it came with home.
Install Win 11 home and then change the Win 11 key with the pro you bought or use a generic Win 11 Pro key
(VK7JG-NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T) and it will convert to pro and activate.

I strongly recommend you make a backup of all your current drivers as some of them are specific for your computer.

You can use Rufus to do that.

This video provides a comprehensive tutorial on how to install Windows 11 24H2 on hardware that does not meet the official system requirements.

VK7JG-NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T is a generic Win 10 / 11 pro key.
You don't need any key to do a clean install.
Did you read my post #5 above?
