WDS / MDT 20H2 Eneprise upgrade - removes all programs

I have MDT and WDS configured for 1909 upgrades and it worked great - other than it installed pro, instead of enterprise. I found the command line to download the enterprise upgrade - but when launched out of WDS (MDT lighttouch.vbs) it moved all the users data over, but all programs were removed. Signing in was like signing in for the first time ever.

Any clues to Enterprise upgrades? I ran the Enterprise update directly (not with MDT/WDS) and it worked perfectly.

Hi,
Did you mean you want to do an in-place upgrade from pro to Enterprise edition?
It needs subscription license.
Otherwise you will need a clean installation.
For your reference:

Hope above information can help you.

Thanks - I think your on to something there. I think we will inplace upgrade (replacing product key) to get Pro to ENT -> then WDS upgrade to 20H2. Good thought!
