Convert Server 2022 Eval To Standard ((link)) (2026 Update)

If you have installed Windows Server 2022 as an edition (typically a 180-day trial) and now wish to convert it to a licensed Standard edition without reinstalling the operating system, you can perform an edition conversion using the DISM command-line tool.
