First I've heard of that. I've downloaded ISO's and used RUFUS to install them, and only needed a valid key to validate once installed.

 

Banned from downloading W11 iso using Rufus

The Rufus FAQ page addresses this error:

From: https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/wiki/FAQ

<excerpt>

This error comes from Microsoft, since Rufus downloads Windows ISOs directly from the Microsoft servers.

In early 2023, Microsoft have stepped up the anti-abuse protection of their ISO download servers and are a lot more proactive (read: aggressive) at banning IP addresses that they consider to be either putting excessive stress on their servers, or that come from a specific region that they want to filter out.

As a workaround, please download the ISO using the Windows 11 Media Creation Tool.
