If the system already has a valid Windows 10 home license, reinstall to Windows 10 Home cleanly. Don't do an upgrade.
If it does not, then run the Windows 10 upgrade.
Don't bother with Pro. That is not your decision. That was your boss.
Yeah, I have 2 work devices. One is windows 10 home(laptop my boss bought for on call work) , the other is windows 7 home (PC given to me when I started)
What I'm actually thinking is I'll just run off of a laptop for all work purposes.
Bring my laptop in and take the PC out.
just run off of the laptop....Thoughts?
This isn't your call though, is it? Your boss clearly gave you two devices, so I would assume that they expect you to use them.
It can be my call if I decide that's what I want to do.
I was given this when I got here, if I choose to use the Laptop that was pruchased for me to use as my everyday and oncall then that's my choice.The other issue is, the licensing doesn't make sense, did you purchase Windows 10 Pro yourself or did the business purchase it to upgrade one of these devices?
IDK where you're getting Windows 10 Pro at all, But all my devices are Home edition.
I think i said i was going to, but then decided that I wasn't paying for something for company use.

Closing down as it's home time

You said you were upgrading your computer (and backing up files) to most people in this community would think that means you're installing an upgraded version of an operating system.
Presumably to get of of crappy home edition windows.

Gotcha, then yeah why deal with managing multiple work-spaces unless there was a critical need for it.

Your laptop has HDMI, your monitor does not. I'm assuming your employer is just playing at being at business. It's insane to have monitors that are VGA only. . . that's at least 8 year old equipment.

What does that have to do with the conversation about a recently purchased laptop and the technology that is in it?
The business purchased a laptop (have you ever looked at the current market for laptops, almost none are going to have VGA ports). Thus the business should purchase (it's employees, fuck the customer at this point) modern equipment to be used with their current laptops.
-
A VGA port on a laptop today would be considered a special use case scenario, so your surprise at not having a VGA port on the laptop is what is shocking.
I know you're still learning, but this is a bit insane. Tell your boss you want to consolidate to just the laptop.
You can use the converter if you wanted but at this point I'd literally just use the laptop and fuck everything else that this employer has you use. Clearly they think business is a joke.
