And there you can choose between a USB flash stick or DVD ISO which you’ll need to burn to a DVD. The majority of users go for the USB option, but ISO can be of use for some, nonetheless. However, some users had a hard time trying to download the Windows 10 ISO via the Media Creation Tool. We prepared some solutions for this ache, and you can find them in the comment section below.

Why can’t I download Windows ISO?

Here are a few reasons why you may not be able to download a Windows ISO file: ➡️ The most likely reason is that you are not eligible to download the ISO file. For example, you may need to have a valid license or product key to download the ISO file. ➡️ You may not have enough space on your drive to download the ISO, ➡️ Additionally, you may need to meet certain system requirements, such as having a compatible version of Windows installed on your computer. ➡️It’s also possible that the ISO file you are trying to download is no longer available or has been removed for some reason.

How to download Windows 10 ISO without failing?

1. Check your connection (pre-check solution)

Let’s start with the connection. The Media Creation Tool allows you to download the Windows 10 ISO file and it, obviously, requires an Internet connection. It doesn’t matter if your bandwidth is slow as long you have a stable connection that allows direct download from the Microsoft servers. With that in mind, we suggest an inspection of your network and troubleshooting possible issues. If you’re not sure what to do, here are some steps that might come in handy: SPONSORED

Restart your PC and Wi-Fi router. Try using a LAN cable instead of Wi-Fi. Disable Proxy/VPN temporarily. Disable the Metered connection. Flush the DNS.

2. Run Disk Cleanup to free up space on your drive (worked for most users ✅)

If you still don’t have enough space on your drive to download the ISO, we recommend storing some of your data in the cloud. You can find many free cloud software for Windows that will keep your data completely safe with top-level encryption and password protection. Cloud software can help you keep your files organized, and create frequent backups and many of them come with unlimited undo options, so you won’t lose any version of your files even if you make changes to them. On top of that, you will be able to access your files on any device as long as you have an internet connection and your credentials.

3. Restart the procedure

Note: Of course, if you’re not in dire need to use the DVD as the installation media, we suggest creating a bootable USB drive instead.

4. Download the ISO directly

5. Become a Windows insider

Even though Microsoft blocks downloads for the official ISO, there is still insider (beta) system options. Of course, this stands only if you’re interested in the Windows 10 Insiders program. Either way, if you’re in dire need of Windows 10 ISO, this is another option we had to mention. Just follow the steps provided on the Microsoft page to become an insider. When you finalize the sign-up procedure and roll in the beta program, you’ll get the ISO with the latest Insider Preview version of Windows 10.
