Windows 10: How to Find Build Being Offered by Windows Media Creation Tool

In a previous thread that I had posted, it was explained to me how I could determine what build of Windows 10 was being offered from the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool. I wanted to make a permanent note of how I could do this but for the life of me I cannot find that thread.

Could someone educate me once more on how I can accomplish this? I seem to recall having to look at some XML text to find those details, but the details are simply eluding me at the moment.

Thanks!

Please disregard. It figures that 5 minutes after giving up I would find the thread.

For any who may be interested, here it is:

Can the "Date modified" be changed for customized Win boot media?

Hello,

The Windows Media Creation Tool allows you to download the Windows 10 ISO directly from Microsoft, without having a product key. You can use it to clean install or upgrade to Windows 10. It can also be use to download the different editions of Windows 10.
Refer to this
link to download the Windows 10 Installation Media Tool.

As for the build and version of your Windows 10, follow the steps below:

• Press Windows key + R on your keyboard to open up the run command prompt.
  
• Type winver into the run command text box and hit OK. You should now see a dialog screen revealing the OS build and registration information.

Should you need additional assistance, do let us know.

 

Media Creation Tool question


Hi, I have never had any problems using the Media Creation Tool to perform a Windows 10 clean installation until yesterday so I have a couple of questions.
1. The tutorial here says after going to the Microsoft site and selecting the Download Tool (Media Creation Tool) option that the Media Creation Tool should be save to the PC and run from there.
On Microsoft site the instructions are to Download the Tool and select Run (no saving to the PC). Is there a reason for saving it to the PC first as suggested on Tenforums?

2. Yesterday I used the Media Creation Tool to do a clean install. Everything went fine with the download. After the two hour download the Media Creation Tool automatically started to create the media. Everything working normally so far..then suddenly at 50% a screen popped up with an unexpected error message Error code beginning 0x80004005. That was it I had to stop there.
After searching the net it seems that other people have had the same issue after the Fall Creators Update...with the installation stopping at 50%. I have no idea how to sort this out. After contacting Microsoft Chat Support they didn't offer any suggestions that worked either.
Can anyone advise please
Many Thanks
