Some users cannot update their current Windows operating systems to Windows 11. Thus, they need Windows 11 ISO file to be able to clean install Windows 11 instead of updating.
Firstly, I'll show you how to download Windows 11 Pro and Home ISO files from Microsoft's servers without facing any errors or difficulties. Then, I'll upload the ISO files on a cloud storage to allow you download them directly.
Let's start downloading Windows 11 ISO files 😉
How to Download Windows 11 ISO
In order to download the ISO files from Windows Update servers, we need a tool called UUP Dump, which allows us to download the UUP files from Windows Update servers with ease.
First, if you use AMD or Intel processors, go to this link. If you use ARM, go to this.
Select the language what you want to install. This will be the main language of your Windows 11 ISO file. Click
Next
.
In this stage, we'll choose the edition of our Windows 11 ISO file. To avoid activation problems, please choose the suitable one for your current Windows. You can select both Windows 10 Home and Pro if you wish. Click
Next
.
You need to choose the
Download and Convert to ISO
option. I want to download the pure ISO file, so I unchecked the Conversion options. ClickCreate download package
.
A .ZIP file will be downloaded. I use WinRaR to open and manage .ZIP and .RAR archives. So, the interface and extraction options will be shown according to it. If you don't have WinRaR, you can download it from here. Even if there is a
Buy WinRaR
button on the download page, don't worry about that because it has an unlimited trial option. 😂Right-click on the just downloaded .ZIP file from UUP dump, and click
Extract files
.
Select Desktop as the destination that the files will be extracted. Then, click
OK
.
You'll see a folder on Desktop named like
22000.51_amd64_en-us_multi_e012464d_convert
. Open it.In the folder, there will be some files like in the image below. Right-click on the
uup_download_windows.cmd
file and clickRun as administrator
. Windows will want a confirmation, clickOK
.
A CMD window will be opened, then UUP dump will start downloading Windows 11 ISO files. Wait until the download process is done.
After downloading finished, you'll see a blue-colored window like the one below. It means your ISO file is ready to use.
You can find Windows 11 ISO file in the folder that we've extracted on Desktop. That is, the ISO file will be in the same directory with the
uup_download_windows.cmd
file.
If you want to check the Windows 11 files in it, right-click on the ISO file, then
Mount
. You'll see a window like that:
That's it. 👏
Conclusion
Now, you have Windows 11 ISO installation files. You can create a bootable USB Flash drive to install Windows 11 by using Rufus.
