Windows 10: Create Windows 10 x86 iso from Windows 10 x64/x86 iso

Hello,


I'm a computer repairer, I am trying to convince more people to upgrade to Windows 10.


So I'm trying to make a bootable Windows 10 iso for x86 based systems, I have an iso file I downloaded from microsoft that contains both x86 and x64 the iso file size is 6.75 GB which obviously won't fit into a 4.7 GB DVDimage 1 , I know I can make a bootable USB stick but sometimes I need a DVD.


I usually use PowerISO to mount and/or burn iso images to discs or USB, so I copied the contents from the /x86 folder to the root of the PoweISO folderimage 2 and used /x86/boot/etfsboot.com as the "boot information" file from the 6.75 GB iso file I didn't use /boot/etfsboot.com nor /x64/boot/etfsboot.comimage 3


After burning the created ISO to a DVD and trying to install the OS on a bit of an old computer from the year 2010 Windows 10 tries to install but at a certain percentage of "Decompressing files" I get Error Code : 0x8007025D. So what did I do wrong trying to make a bootable iso?

Probably not a legit key though. The whole "use this dummy key to upgrade" thing kind of gives it away. If it was a legit key, you wouldn't need that. You'd just put the key in, and Windows 10 would upgrade to Windows 10 Pro. It might activate today, but I bet if you try to do a re-install in a few months and re-activate it won't. Heck, it will probably de-activate in a few months anyway, now that Windows 10 does a re-activation every few months, and if it can't re-activate after so many months it de-activates itself(maybe 3 months).

Just to clear it up, I wasn't trying to be negative. The ISO links are nice to have in case you can't get the media creation tool to work for some reason. Like you only have a Mac, but just built your first gaming PC.

Maybe, just as a suggestion, use the media creation tool to download the ISO with both, and upload that to Dropbox as well. That would be a great alternate source for it.

I can actually look into hosting them myself as well for you. So you can put direct links in the first post to the ISO again instead of going through drop box.

OK.
In regards to the new link I got from support a moment ago.

Seems as though my sticky was taken away though *Frown *Roll :roll:

I'm currently uploading both versions to a server ,to keep them there for whenever their needed. That way no matter what Microsoft does I'll always have the separate Iso's.

Dropbox link added to OP for both x86 & x64 Versions. NO Dropbox account required to DL, just choose "no thanks continue to Download" @ bottom of prompt windows..

I was given these links by microsoft support to download the windows 10 ISO file for install.
I have verified with M$ support that they CAN be shared with others, they DO require a key to activate, I am only providing these links, because as we all know, it CAN get tuff finding a direct ISO link for DL, also for those who rather not use the "media creation tool" I have also already verified this is okay with TPU senior moderators, as they are only links to iso, and not pirated.

*clicking link initiates the Download Prompt, so be warned*
it Seems these links have expired?

"ISO link" allows you to choose your Version etc, the generated DL links expire in 24 hours TESTED.

Dropbox link Does NOT require account, just click link @ bottom of Prompt window.

Again these were provided by the Microsoft "answer desk" they are NOT free copies, or pirated, I am providing the links simply as a convenience for those looking for ISO files for windows 10 32 or 64 Bit.

Hope people find it useful.
