So now how do I get an iso of that windows 10 after the upgrade or free download.

So I am upgrading windows 10 or getting it free after requesting it for July 29.

So now how do I get an iso of that windows 10 after the upgrade or free download.

Is there a website I go to.

 

Which edition? DVD should be fine to fit 4,37 GB, that is usually enough. Enterprise is 3GB, Pro is 4,1GB, etc.

 

I downloaded 16232 and 16251 from the Windows Insider site.

16232 burns to a DVD+R. 16251 doesn't.

There are four editions on the 16251 which I installed from a USB drive.

I want to burn 16251 so as I can fit it on a DVD+R.

 

Yeah, Insider is not really optimized for that. You can download UUP or use your own files and create ISO.

You can download a homebrew ISO (from a trusted site), but it is not really recommended, I did though. *Rolleyes

Use a double sided dvd disk unless your writer is positively ancient!

 

Tis ancient like myself

 

Easy to do, although space saved might not be enough to you.

1.) Mount your multi-edition Windows 10 ISO

2.) Open an elevated Command Prompt or PowerShell

3.) Check available editions with following command replacing drive letter and path in WimFile:W:\Sources\install.wim (or install.esd) with the actual drive letter and path to install.wim on your mounted ISO. Note the index number for your preferred edition:

dism /Get-WimInfo /Wimfile:W:\Sources\install.wim

In this example I have the official Slow Ring ISO for build 16251 which contains 9 editions. As I would like to extract the W10 PRO image, I will use its index number 8:





4.) Run following command, replacing drive letter and path in SourceImageFile with actual path to install.wim (or install.esd) on your mounted ISO, SourceIndex number with the actual index of edition you want to extract, and DestinationImageFile path with path where you want to save the extracted single edition install.wim:

dism /export-image /SourceImageFile:W:\Sources\install.wim /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:\install.wim /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity





5.) Copy the full ISO content from mounted ISO to a folder (I use folder ISO_Files for this) on your hard disk, then replace the original install.wim file in ISO_Files\Sources folder with your extracted single edition install.wim and finally create new ISO as told in Part Five in this tutorial: Create Windows 10 ISO image from Existing Installation Windows 10 Installation Upgrade Tutorials

That's it. In this example, the space saved was just under half a GB. Original Build 16251 Multi Edition ISO (UK English) install.wim with 9 editions:

Thanks @Kari! I was just going through your tutorial to figure out where to point the OP to create the ISO file after he extracted the single edition to a new install.wim file - and you beat me to it!

 

You are welcome *Smile

 

OK. Success so far. Going to try to make the ISO now.

 

Let us know how it went, if the space saved was enough to fir the image on a DVD.

 

Stuck at making iso. Not sure which option to use.

 

What do you mean? There are no options to choose if you follow the instructions in Part Five in ISO tutorial Create Windows 10 ISO image from Existing Installation Windows 10 Installation Upgrade Tutorials

It's straight forward. No options to choose. It couldn't be simpler.
