Windows 10 - Create install media or download ISO from Microsoft

 

29 July 2015 means Windows 10 has arrived and Microsoft has made it easy for any users to create their installation media to install the new OS.

This means if you understand the terms USB, ISO and installation media then you can jump the reservation line and begin your Windows 10 installation right now.

You can access the 32 and 64 bit version of the media creation tool from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

See the screenshots in this gallery for images of the process and what to expect.

The following are needed to use these tools:

  • An internet connection (internet service provider fees may apply).
  • Sufficient data storage available on a computer, USB or external drive for the download.
  • A blank USB or DVD (and DVD burner) with at least 4 GB of space if you want to create media. We recommend using a blank USB or blank DVD, because any content on it will be deleted.
  • Your account must have administrator privileges.
