Windows 10 Media Creation Tool For Version 1909

Windows 10 Media Creation Tool For Version 1909


                Windows 10 Media Creation Tool for recently released Version 1909 is available for download. Media Creation Tool is one of the most popular tools to download Windows 10 and create a bootable USB/DVD automatically. Since this tool is from Microsoft, it is super reliable and easy to use.

What is Media Creation Tool?

Windows 10 Media Creation tool has two functions:

  1. Upgrade the PC which has already installed Windows 10
  2. Create installation media (USB flash drive, DVD) for another PC or simply download the latest Windows 10 ISO file.

Windows Update Assistant is another tool which can be used to upgrade the PC seamlessly but I prefer the media creation tool. If you want to upgrade your PC to the latest version of Windows 10, you should select the first option. And if you want to create a bootable USB/DVD, then you should select the second option.

The only problem with the Media Creation Tool is that it will try to download the Windows 10 setup every time you want to create a bootable USB/DVD. This is the default behavior.

How to use Media Creation Tool
