However, I have one encrypted directory on one of the old NTFS disks which I can not decrypt, so I can't copy the files. I have a new machine name and my user is username/newmachine and the files are owned by username/oldmachine. I can change their ownership the new ID but they will not cop

    downgrade win 11 to win 10

    I just reran the Media Creation Tool that I just downloaded a few minutes ago. It took less than three minutes to create the ISO file on my medium powered computer with NVMe SSD and 500 Mbps internet connection. Maybe try restarting your computer and downloading a fresh Media Creation Tool? Make sure to note where the ISO file is stored at the last step:
