How can I create Windows 10 installation media for new PC?
I had the same issue with my DIY PC—no OS. I used WonderISO appto create a Windows 10 installation USB, and it was super simple. Just a few clicks, and I was ready to install Windows—perfect for non-techies like me!
Rebeccacuo The Windows 10 Media Creation Tool is an official utility provided by Microsoft that allows users to download and create Windows 10 installation media for free. This tool is particularly useful for upgrading an existing Windows installation, performing a clean install, or creating bootable USB drives or ISO files to install Windows 10 on other devices.
Evierer One of the main cons of the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool is that it requires a stable and fast internet connection to download the Windows 10 ISO or installation files. Without this, the process can be slow or may even fail, especially when dealing with large updates or files. This can be a problem for users with limited or unreliable internet access.
Another drawback is that the tool doesn’t allow much customization when creating installation media. Users cannot adjust advanced installation settings like partitioning, choosing specific drivers, or including software in the installation process. For users who want more control over the installation process, this can be limiting.
Finally, the Media Creation Tool can occasionally encounter errors for making Windows 10 install media, such as problems with USB drives or incomplete downloads. Additionally, some users report difficulties with driver compatibility after installation, which may require further troubleshooting or updates post-install.
