[SOLVED] Can I make a boot-able Windows 10 installation disk?

[theguy01205]

Hello everyone! I am getting ready to put together a new Ryzen system. I will be using an Asus X470 ROG Strix-F Gaming motherboard and I am concerned with Windows 7 compatibility. I have a cd key and install disk for windows 7 and then do the free upgrade to windows 10. Is there a way I can make a boot-able Windows 10 install disk? I am running Windows 10 64bit on my system now. Thanks!

Awesome thanks! Quick question... So i made the Windows 10 ISO today and have it saved on my pc ready to burn to DVD. However, the windows key i have is a Windows 7 key. So when I use the Windows 10 ISO to boot the new system is that going to work?

You can probably activate the Win 10 install with a valid Win 7 license key. I did it a couple of weeks ago with a Win 8.1 license key.

Exactly how I did it:
Install the Win 10, and leave it unactivated.
Later, in ThisPC-Properties, Change license key.
Enter your Win 7 license. It should activate itself.
