So, you're looking to grab a Windows 10 ISO? Whether you're setting up a virtual machine, performing a clean install, or just archiving the operating system, having the ISO file is crucial. Luckily, downloading it is relatively straightforward.
First, head to the official Microsoft website. Don't trust unofficial sources, as they might contain malware! Look for the 'Download Windows 10 Disc Image (ISO File)' section.
Important: To avoid being immediately redirected to the update assistant, Microsoft often recommends accessing the download page from a non-Windows device (like a Mac or Linux machine) or by spoofing your user agent in your browser's developer tools. Alternatively, search online for the 'Windows 10 Media Creation Tool'.
Once on the correct page, select your Windows 10 edition, choose your language, and then download the 32-bit or 64-bit version depending on your needs. That's it! You're now ready to use your Windows 10 ISO. Remember to back up your data before any major system changes!
