Hello Everyone,
Recently available from a major popular computer parts e-tailer is Windows 10 DVD installation media only, without license, for less than 15$.
Has anyone ordered this?
When and from where?
What release version and or SKU?
A while back I had the feeling my PC was sabotaging installation media created or burned. Maybe even been VPN’d to a fake creator tool websites. I was thinking, wouldn’t be easier to just download and burn ISO rather than recompiling ISO on a perhaps compromised system. But it is for USB image also.
That eliminates one source of problems. A clean starting point. also like the shiny genuine disc and official Microsoft packaging.
There are also some very subtle but important differences between media creation tool USB and disc, and official disc. I can’t recall them now. I have been out of the PC ecosystem for over two years now, so this might not be the case anymore.
