Windows 10 download usb installer

You can use installation media (a USB flash drive or DVD) to install a new copy of Windows, perform a clean installation, or reinstall Windows

To create installation media, go to the software download website, where you'll find step-by-step instructions. On that website, you can select a version of Windows and create your own installation media using either a USB flash drive or a DVD. To go directly to one of the versions, select one of these links:

To create the installation media, here's what you'll need:

• A PC with a reliable internet connection. The download time will vary, depending on your internet connection.

• A USB flash drive or DVD. A blank USB flash drive with at least 8 GB of space, or a blank DVD (and DVD burner). We recommend using a blank USB or blank DVD because any content on it will be deleted. When burning a DVD from an ISO file, if you're told the disc image file is too large, you'll need to use dual layer (DL) DVD media.

• A product key. Your character product key (not required for digital licenses). For help finding it, go to Find your Windows product key.

After you've created the installation media, you can reset or reinstall Windows. To learn more, go to Recovery options in Windows
