    Do I need the install.esd AND installx64.esd files on my disk?


    Hi Adam, welcome to the Ten Forums.

    You can delete those files if you want to, although I would follow the David's suggestion in post above mine.

    If you decide to completely delete them, you might want to first create your own Windows 10 install media from them:

    ESD to ISO - Create Bootable ISO from Windows 10 ESD File  


    The first link in Step 1.1 is not working: , you do not have permission to access this page.

    Also when I try to run ESDtoISO it claims that the ESD file is not an original Microsoft ESD file. I'm doing this in VMWare btw.
