Run MediaCreationTool as Administrator
Go to the folder where your downloaded file is located, right-click, and run the MediaCreationTool executable. If the User Account Control (UAC) window appears, click "Yes" to allow the tool to start.
Accept License Terms
The wizard will load the setup configurations. Carefully read the applicable notices and license terms, then click "Accept" to proceed.
Choose What You Want to Do

Choose Which Media to Use
Choose "ISO file" as your media option and click "Next". This downloads the official file containing the operating system, which you can burn to a USB later using Rufus or Ventoy.
Choose Download Folder
A file explorer window will open. Select the folder (e.g. Downloads or Desktop) where you wish to save the Windows 10 ISO image, name the file, and click "Save".
Downloading Windows ISO File
The tool will begin downloading the Windows 10 ISO file. This process may take some time depending on your internet connection speed. You can continue using your PC while the download runs in the background.

Once the download is finished and the tool verifies the files, click "Finish" to close the Media Creation Tool safely.
