title: Can Visual Studio Community 2015 be easily updated to Visual Studio Professional 2015
body: <p>I have Visual Studio Community Edition 2015 installed on my drive D:.</p>
  
  <p>I recently got a 1TB SSD for my C: drive and wanted to move VS to that drive.  Long story shortened; it was a nightmare.  Although I could uninstall VS, I could not get it to reinstall in any other location except for D:.  After three days of trying, I gave up and reinstalled back to D:.  I still could not get it to install correctly and some things are "damaged".  Updates, etc. do not completely succeed because of the "damaged" module installation.  I do not want to risk running the "Repair" option in the control panel again because that often makes it worse (damages more things); which leads to a several hour process of uninstalling &amp; reinstalling.  This question shows some of the installer/uninstaller problems: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34167095/installation-errors-in-repair-of-visual-studio-2015-community-edition-on-windows?rq=1">Installation errors in repair of Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition on Windows 10</a></p>
  
  <p>I am now planning on reinstalling Windows 10 Pro in order to clean up this install.</p>
  
  <p>I was planning on eventually getting Visual Studio Professional 2015.</p>
  
  <p>Will I have similar problems upgrading from "Community Edition" to the "Professional" version?</p>
  
  <p>I was hoping to open a dialog box, type in the license key and have the "Community Editon" become a "Professional" version.  Is that possible or is a complete uninstall/reinstall how this upgrade would work?</p>
