Parallels installs windows home instead of pro

I have key for windows pro, however when parallels assistant does the windows install it alway installs windows home. The pro key does not work on the home edition. There is no dialog in the install process that I can see that directs the installer to get the windows pro iso. Can anyone advise me on how to get around this impasse
thanks

Hi Gerald
I am facing the same issue
Could you pls share the solution

Thanks

 

you can start the VM creation as mentioned here but when you are on the screen to select the ISO and continue to select "Locate Manually" then select "Continue without a source" then proceed to select Operating System.
Choose the profile for your virtual machine.
Give a name for the VM and create. You will get a no boot screen.
Use Actions (on Mac menu bar) > Stop.
Now you can see the empty VM on Parallels Desktop Control Center.
Now you can mount the Windows 10 ISO and start the VM which will start Windows installation manually.
Don't enter Windows key during installation select "I don't have a key" then you can choose the Edition to be installed. You can complete the activation after the installation is complete.
