I seem to be unable to launch the media creation tool. Everytime I try to run the .exe (even in safe mode or as an administrator) after I get the UAC dialog nothing happens.

I don't get any kind of error dialog or even see the program or process in my task manager.

I'm unsure of how to proceed.

Hello,

Please try the following;

>> Open msconfig via the Run box (Hold Windows key + R and enter "msconfig")
>> Click on Services tab, click on Hide all Microsoft services, click Disable All. Click OK.
>> Click on the Startup tab, click on Disable all, click OK.
>> Reboot.
Try running setup.exe from the flash drive. If it won't run, right click on it and select Run as Administrator again.

You may try to run as safe mode with networking enabled;

Follow these steps:

>>Press Windows Key + R.
>> Run will open, type msconfig and hit the Enter key.
>> A system configuration box will pop up.
>> Click on Boot Tab.
Select or click the check box Safe mode with networking.
>> Click on Apply and ok.

You will then see a restart button. Click...

Once you are in safe mode try to create the ISO of Windows 10 and check if you are able to create it.

Once you completed the steps above follow the below steps on how to go back to normal mode:

>> Press Windows Key + R.
>> Run will open, type msconfig and hit the Enter key.
>> A system configuration box will pop up.
>> Click on Boot Tab.
>> If you see safe mode box has a check mark in it, uncheck the safe mode box and hit apply or ok.
>> You will then see a restart button. Click it to restart your computer.
>> When your computer comes back up, sign in and you will now be in "normal mode".
