Dear Khaled,
Greetings from the Microsoft Support Team! I hope you're having a great day. Thank you for reaching out regarding your upgrade from Windows 11 to Windows 11 Pro. Let me walk you through the steps to make the process simple and smooth.
Steps to Upgrade
Check Your Current Edition
First, confirm you’re using Windows 11 Home.
Go to Settings > System > About, and look under the "Windows specifications" section.
Obtain a Windows 11 Pro License Key
To proceed with the upgrade, you’ll need a valid Windows 11 Pro product key.
You can purchase the license directly from the Microsoft Store for a seamless process.
Start the Upgrade Process
Open Settings > System > Activation.
Under the "Upgrade your edition of Windows" section, select Change product key.
Enter your Windows 11 Pro product key and follow the instructions to start the upgrade.
Upgrade Through the Microsoft Store (Alternative Option)
If you don’t already have a product key, return to Activation settings.
Select Upgrade your edition of Windows and then click Open Store.
Follow the prompts to purchase and apply the upgrade directly from the Microsoft Store.
Restart Your Device
Once the installation is complete, restart your laptop to finalize the upgrade.
For additional guidance, I recommend exploring these resources:

You meant from home edition to pro edition?
Do you have pro license? If not you need to purchase it from store app first. Search for Win11 pro. Once purchased you can install it from there.
Let me know your current pro license situation. There can be other scenarios so I can provide instruction accordingly.
