Hello

Is there someone who has the correct procedure to do? I called dell and Microsoft every day without success :-(

Concerning

Well, I followed the method of downgrade described by Philip Yip and during the telephone conversation with Microsoft active rep my new installation of Windows 8.1 pro.
Here's what you need to do:
1 extract you Windows 10 Pro BIOS key using produkey-64. Write it down.
2. go to the Microsoft web site to create a true Windows 8.1 Pro installation support: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows8?wa=wsignin1.0
3. do a clean install of Windows 8.1 Pro using the generic key mentioned above in the post by Philip Yip
4. Alick to activate Windows, and then select telephone Activation
5. call using the number displayed in the activate dialog box
6. Microsoft representative say that ' you have Windows 10 Pro and you want to run your downgrade rights to Windows 8.1 Pro»
7. they will ask you your key Windows 10 Pro to make sure it is valid and will confirm that you have the right to downgrade
8. after that, they could connect to another representative - repeat what you mentioned in step 6
9. they will ask you installation ID
10. after that they'll ask you which key you used - tell them generic key
11. Finally in my case instead of telling me the activation ID - they gave me a new product key for Windows 8.1 Pro who, after entering got my Pro 8.1 active Windows.
Maybe in your case - they will give you an activation code.

In any case - it's fully working method.
