Microsoft has finally rolled out Windows 10 to the Public. Genuine users of Windows 7 and 8 would be receiving the windows 10 update if they had opted for the free upgrade before the 29th of July.

Just a year back, Microsoft was offering Windows 7 ISO files freely to the public via direct download links. Anyone was able to download Windows 7 ISO files regardless of them using a genuine copy of windows or a pirated one. In order to minimize the wastage of bandwidth and to stop pirates to an extent, Microsoft is now providing a small program called as the ' Media creation tool ' which allows you to download windows operating systems. At the same time the media creation tool also lets you choose whether you want to download a ISO file of the OS or directly create a bootable USB flash drive for installing the OS.
The same feature has been carried over for Windows 10 too. If you want to download Windows 10 ISO directly from Microsoft, you will compulsorily have to install Microsoft's media creation tool for windows 10.
The good thing is, this method is far better than downloading Windows 10 ISO from file sharing or torrent sites. Nobody knows what those versions of Windows 10 have in them. You might not be able to the OS without any hiccups, but deep within the operating system might have been embedded with an rootkit, adware, spyware or many other potentially undetectable malware.
For those who want to perform a clean install, instead of upgrading to windows 10, here's how you can grab hold on a clean and untouched version of Windows 10 ISO file directly from Microsoft's servers.
