if you want to skip an in-place upgrade or whatever M$ imposes, just follow those steps:
in your current OS.
look into the windows 10 ISO or installation media you have.
go to sources folder.
copy gatherosstate_XX.exe to your desktop (32bit or 64bit accordingly to your installed one).
execute gatherosstate_XX.exe from your desktop.
it will generate a GenuineTicket.XML file on your desktop.
copy GenuineTicket.XML to a flash drive for use after the windows 10 installation.
fresh install windows 10 (the way you like) *windows edition must match the M$ upgrade scheme".
mark the checkbox "i dont have a key..."
after the installation of the proper edition of windows 10.
copy the saved GenuineTicket.XML file to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\ClipSVC\GenuineTicket\
expect windows 10 to be activated with a digital license after a while or reboot.
*requires internet access all time.
