    Windows 10 home download just purchased from microsoft and the media creation tool will not run. Error code displayed is 0x80072F8F-0x20000. I ran compatibility check and it came out as incompatible media creation tool 22H2. My current version is windows 7 professional installed as an OEM product on my HP PC.

  2. Media Creation Tool disappear while downloading win 10 at 69%

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply. I don't know which third party downloader allows resume functions.

    • Is it any direct download link for windows 10 as same as windows 7?
    • How to use third party downloader to download windows 10?
    If you have any recommended links to get windows 10, kindly suggest me. I'm very fascinating to use win 10. But i'm very dissappointing with this tool. I tried this tool (Media Creation Tool) more than 3 times. It disappeared above 50% at different levels.

    My suggestion is, Give us a direct link to download windows 10.

    media Creation Tool won't run

    Hi gentlemen, I am nursing a new laptop again, with win 10 v.1909 on it.
    After running into problems with HELLO and Passwords ,I thought I had cured those problems by a system reset. But after a few deadends, an upgrade (which my pc would not acknowledge) to 2004 was suggested and a tutorial for doing it I found here in Ten Forums. So following this upgrade from 1909 to 2004 tutorial:
    The Download started as described to a USB (after the first USB was deemed unusable with a message Win 10 failed to install update with error code 0x80073D02 and required a restart of whole process).
    But when it came to running the media Creation tool for creating the USB with Win 10 I get a message "Unable to run the Media Creation Tool on your pc. Turn off or restart your pc and try again, reference Error code 0x800701 B1-0xA001B if problem continues. Then just before the pc begins the restart , I guess a translation? "The specified protocol is not supported" pops up. I'm stumped even more now. Is the MCT the protocol, or supported by what. Oddly enough each time I got these messages, and I start closing pages the next page the concluding words with "Finish" as the last step.

    media creation tool

    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.
