MCT for downloading Windows 11 is broken when using Windows 10
I am experiencing an issue with the Media Creation Tool for downloading Windows 11. When I try to use it on a Windows 10 PC, the tool appears to be broken or fails to complete the download process, making it impossible to create a Windows 11 installation media. This problem has persisted despite multiple attempts and updates, and it only occurs when running the Media Creation Tool on Windows 10 systems. I am seeking help from the community to understand if this is a known issue or if there is a workaround to successfully use the Media Creation Tool for Windows 11 on Windows 10. Any guidance or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Use the Windows 11 Installation Assistant instead. It upgrades your PC directly.
If you need installation media, download the Windows 11 ISO file directly from Microsoft's website.
