Upgrade Troubleshooting note:

If you find that when you go to do this process the radio button for "Convert from Evaluation to Full Product Version. Enter your 25-character product key:" is not present but you are still getting a prompt that you are on an Evaluation version. You can resolve this with the following steps:

(1) Open a Command Prompt with Elevated Rights

(2) Open Registry Editor (type regedit) and then click Yes if prompted by UAC

(3) Navigate to “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Setup"

(4) Look for the key labeled "ProductID" and if showing NONEVAL, change to EVAL

* Make sure you back up your existing key before you make this change

(5) Look for the key labeled "Phase" and change from "455" or "1c7" to "255"

(6) Close the Registry Editor and now follow the steps in this guide, after the upgrade completes change the "Phase" key back to "455" or "1c7"
