Windows 10: mediacreationtool not working (anymore)

I wanted to migrate back to Windows8.1, but the mediacreationtool doesnt let me download the windows8.1 iso file anymore. I guess this totally purposely, to force people into Windows10. It just says something like "cant download bla bla" the moment I click ok. A friend tested it too and it doesnt work.

Are there any other save mirrors for a Windows 8.1 x86 iso? Or can I get any logs by the mediacreationtool, why it's not working?

:)

 

Windows 10 Update for Windows 7 Home Premium SP1

This does not work ... i think i dont need that icon on the taskbar anymore, as windows update still says "Windows 10 is Reserved on this pc" but the main point is IT IS NOT DOWNLOADING!!! i cant see any Windows~BT like folder in C: drive

Do i need ALL LATEST UPDATES for windows 7?

Can i update my OS using the MediaCreationTool and will it be genuine?

Hi,

I tried to create a installation USB stick but the Mediacreationtool doesn't work, it tells me the error:

Thanks

 

Were you using this link ?

I just tried it and it got started ok.

P.S. I did not finish it because I have no use of a win 8/8.1 iso file.

No, because it's the same file. It's not working for german, windows8.1 non n/pro, x86.

 

Just downloading it in the UK, no problem. Deutsch 8.1 Pro 64bit

 

Ive tested it now on a Win7 PC also, not working too.

 

I was able to download the iso with this hack:
