The license terms for Windows permit you to make one copy of the software as a back-up copy for re-installation on the licensed computer. Please see the documentation for your computer for information about how to change the BIOS boot order of drives.
This allows you to install Windows onto your machine without having to first run an existing operating system.
When you download Windows from Microsoft Store, you have two options: You can download a collection of compressed files, or you can download an ISO file.Īn ISO file combines all the Windows installation files into a single uncompressed file.
