    How do i download the windows creation media tool directly onto my USB?


    I had a problem with the laptop i was previously using [1] and i am now trying to download the windows media creation tool [2]as a solution. However my old laptop doesn't have enough space to download it directly but i have a USB that can download it. I tried running the program but it always says not enough space on 'C:', i assume that is my computer however i never got an option to change where it was being downloaded. Is it possible to download it directly on a USB??

  2. Windows Media Creation Tool won't download:

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I would suggest you to provide some information to help you better


    • Are you using Internet Explorer to download the files?

    • Are you using a wired net connection or wireless net connection?
    You can use the media creation tool to upgrade your current PC to
    Windows 10 or to create a USB or DVD and install Windows 10 on a different PC.

    Installing Windows 10 using the media creation tool:
    Windows 10 herunterladen

    Alternatively, you can also use another pc to download the files.

    Keep us informed if the issue is resolved. We are glad to help you further

  3. media creation tool error

    Hi Tcom-Master

    My name is Andre Da Costa; an Independent Consultant, Windows Insider MVP and Windows & Devices for IT MVP. I'm here to help you with your problem.

    The error code 0x800424050 x AC01B means that the tool doesn't have permission for it to run. For us to assist you, we suggest that you follow the simple steps listed below:

    1.Right-click on the Media Creation Tool.exe.

    2.Press Properties.

    3.Click on General.

    4.At the bottom, click on Unblock.

    5.Press Apply, and then OK.

    Or

    1. Download the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool directly into the USB drive that you want to use as a bootable device (meaning you download the Tool into the same USB you chose to use as an Installation Media). If you already downloaded the tool on your PC's
    Desktop, copy it into your USB.

    2. Run the Tool directly from your USB, meaning you open File Explorer, locate the MediaCreationTool.exe in your USB and double-click to run it.

    The installer should then create an Installation Media/Bootable USB.

    Let us know how it goes and if you need further assistance, feel free to post back.

    If that does not work, you can also make a bootable copy this way:

    Step 1: Go to another working computer with Internet access, download Windows 10 1903 from the following link:

    https://tb.rg-adguard.net/index.php?sid=74a7cf5...

    Choose the following:

    - Windows Final

    - Windows 10, version 1903

    - Windows 10 Pro + Home

    - English

    - x64 (64 bit) x32 (32 bit)

    Step 2: create a bootable copy

  4. How do i download the windows creation media tool directly onto my USB?

    Windows 10 USB boot

    Hi there, am not a windows 10 expert. I have a pc in the bedroom on windows 10, I messed up the bootloader trying to fix the xp on that system.

    System wont boot, trying to repair via win 10 usb installer.

    Downloaded the media creation tool to install windows 10 installer on usb stick. Not compatible with a host of usb sticks I have. Tried the usb sticks that others use, but I think they use rufus; as the media creation tool by win 10 does not detect the usb stick.

    So quick question, the win10 machine i am trying to repair the bootloader is a win7 upgraded to win10.
    If i were to use the usb win10 installer to "repair installation" does the version of the iso downloaded via the media creation tool matter?

    There is three options:
    Windows 10
    Windows 10 Home
    Windows 10 N

    Also is there a step by step instead of using rufus as I want to try an alternative method of creating a usb win 10 installer. Preferably with more compatibility.

    System is a asus sabertooth 990 (r2?) with AMD phenom X 6.

    Also is there any other software I can load onto the usb that can repair the bootloader easily?
    That would be the ideal alternative. Thanks
