Question

Sign in to vote

On my machine, which runs on Linux Mint 17, i have visited the https://www.microsoft.com/hu-hu/software-download/windows10 website and clicked the Download Tool (32 bit version) link. An around 3 GB file was downloaded. The question is whether may use this file for installation of Windows 10 after having to burn to a DVD in the same way, as if after downloading Windows Media Creation Tool?

Hi,

Bypass the Media Creation Tool method by downloading the ISO, and then using the Windows ISO Creator to create your installation media.

No body here has any idea on how to do this, because they don't run a Linux. I on the other hand do run a Ubunta 16.04. Their are softwares you can download under Ubuntu Software or what ever system you're using (Your Linux - Software)*. Their are ways to mount .ISO to DVD Drive as well as ,ways to mount usb's to reformat them to be able to act as a boot.

Either look up UNetbootin, or type in .ISO and read the descriptions. If you need more help, Than I'll need to know what system you run. Go to System settings & details.
