Windows 10: media creation tool not installed. Tried with 2 USB 8gb and 24gb and both no longer working

Using the tool tried to install on USB but both times it got ot the final stage then no longer worked. USBs can´t format at all. I have tried on different computers and tires CLEAN in CMD and also tried with partition software AOEMI but nothing works. I see the USB and can partition but can´t format Both seemingly ruined. I don´t trust trying another USB in case that also gets ruined.


2 things,

Can the Media Creation Tool be trusted

how can I recover my USBs=

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)

Media Creation Tool question

I recommend saving the .iso for two reasons. The first reason is you have the .iso to hand in case you need it later on. The second is Rufus does a better job of making a Bootable USB.
