tarekma7 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 A new script makes it easy to create an ISO for any version of Windows 10, including Windows 10 version 1507 through 20H2. For those not familiar with ISO images, they are a sector-by-sector copy of a DVD. This ISO file can then be written, or burned, to a DVD to create a replica of the original media, mounted as a drive letter in Windows, or extracted by a program like 7-Zip to access the contained files. If you want to perform a clean install of Windows 10 or run into a problem, it is always helpful to download an ISO that can be used to create Windows 10 media. A new batch file called 'Universal MCT wrapper' lets you download the Media Creation Tool for any version of Windows 10 so that you can create an ISO. To use the script, download the batch file and launch it to see a dialog box asking what version of Windows 10 you would like to make installation media. After selecting the version, the script will download the associated Windows 10 Media Creation Tool and other support files and automatically launch the program in Windows 10. Depending on what version of Windows 10 you select, the Media Creation Tool will offer different Windows media you can choose. For example, earlier Windows versions are broken down into their different licenses, while newer versions of Windows 10 are combined into Client or Enterprise media. After the Media Creation Tool is launched, to create an ISO, please following these steps: Agree to the license agreement. Select the 'Create installation media for another PC' option and press Next. Select the Windows media you wish to create and press Next. At the 'Choose which media to use' screen, select 'ISO file' and press Next You will now be prompted to select a folder to save the ISO. Wait for the Media Creation Tool to download the selected ISO file. When done, an ISO file will be saved in the folder you specified, which can now be burned onto a DVD. How to check the Windows 10 ISO version After creating the ISO, you may want to double-check that it's the correct Windows 10 version before you use it. To do this, double-click on the ISO to automatically mount it as a drive letter in Windows 10. You can then open a Windows 10 elevated command prompt and execute the following dism.exe command to get information about the ISO you just created. Be sure to replace [drive_letter] with the drive letter the ISO is mounted. dism /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:[drive_letter]:\sources\install.esd /index:1 After running the command, the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool (DISM) will display information about the Windows 10 version in the ISO. As you can see below, this ISO is for Windows 10 build 10240, which corresponds to Windows 10 1507. Now that you know you have the correct version, you can burn the ISO to a DVD as backup media or use it to install Windows. It should be noted that if you install very old versions of Windows 10, Windows Update will automatically update you to a newer feature update.

The author published it some time ago, just the bleeping publishers have not yet found and reprinted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
