admin 22:48 Add Comment
Where to download Windows 10 disc image (iso file) to install for Mac OSX?

To use the media creation tool, visit the Microsoft Software Download Windows 10 page from a Windows 7, Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 device.

You can use the official microsoft  page to download a disc image (ISO file) that can be used to install or reinstall Windows 10. The image can also be used to create installation media using a USB flash drive or DVD.




Make sure you have:
  • An internet connection (internet service provider fees may apply).
  • Sufficient available data storage for the download, on a computer, USB or external drive.
  • blank USB or DVD (and DVD burner) with at least 4 GB of space if you want to create media. We recommend using a blank USB or blank DVD, because any content on it will be deleted.
Check these things on the PC on which you want to install Windows 10:
  • 64-bit or 32-bit processor (CPU). You’ll create either the 64-bit or 32-bit version of Windows 10 that’s appropriate for your CPU. To check this on your PC, go to PC info in PC settings or System in Control Panel, and look for System type.
  • System requirements. See the system requirements before installing Windows 10. We also recommend that you visit your PC manufacturer's website for info about updated drivers and hardware compatibility.
  • Language in Windows. You'll need to choose the same language when you install Windows 10. To see what language you're currently using, go to Time and language in PC settings or Region in Control Panel.
  • Edition of Windows. You should also choose the same edition of Windows. To check which edition you're currently running, go to PC info in PC settings or System in Control Panel and look for Windows edition. Windows 10 Enterprise isn’t available here. Please see the Volume Licensing Service Centre for more information.
  • Microsoft Office products. If you just purchased a new device that includes Office 365, we recommend redeeming (installing) Office before upgrading to Windows 10. To redeem your copy of Office, please see Download and install Office 365 Home, Personal or University on your PC. For more information, check How to upgrade to Windows 10 on new devices that include Office 365.
    If you have Office 2010 or earlier and choose to perform a clean install of Windows 10, you will need to locate your Office product key. For tips on locating your product key, check Find your Office 2010 product key or Enter the product key for your Office 2007 program.

Windows 10 is full of new features and improvements. Take a look at the highlights!
Ready, set, Start menu.

You literally are the password

Any device can carry your content, but only Windows gives you a truly personal experience. With Windows Hello, your device authenticates and recognizes you based on your presence, providing extra security, convenience, and even a friendly hello.9

Note: Windows Hello will be available on select new devices coming soon.

The Start menu is back—and it’s more personal, more organized, and more fun than before.

Cortana can get it done



Cortana, your digital personal assistant, is right on your desktop. Ask Cortana to set up a meeting or send an email to a friend—even find your files for you and tell you jokes. Select the search box and type what you want Cortana to do, or just select the microphone to talk with Cortana instead.

Cortana is only available in certain countries/regions, and some Cortana features might not be available everywhere. If Cortana isn't available or is turned off, you can still use search.

Where you can type, you can write



Microsoft Edge isn't the only app you can write in. Use your tablet pen, finger, or your mouse to write everywhere you could type before. Or just doodle in OneNote. We won't tell.

Sign in and greet the day with Windows Hello



If it’s available on your device, Windows Hello changes how you sign in—it uses your face or fingerprint instead of a password. Go to Settings > Accounts > Sign-in options to set it up.

Microsoft's best OS yet... (maybe just wait until they patch some things).



Yes, it’s free. This is a full version of Windows, not a trial or introductory version. It is available for a limited time: you have until July 29, 2016 to take advantage of this offer. Once you upgrade, you’ll have Windows 10 for free on that device.

Before you begin, ensure Windows Update can download and install updates automatically. Not sure how to do that? Head here. Once automatic updates are enabled, launch Command Prompt in Administrator mode (instructions here), and enter the following command: wuauclt.exe/updatenow. That shouldtrigger the Windows 10 download.
