-
- - Basic info:
-
- - Officially there are 3 sources to get the .ISO's.
- MVS (formerly MSDN), VLSC, and Techbench
- - MVS and VLSC requires a subscription to download the .ISO's, but Techbench links are public.
- There is no official and easy to use site for all Techbench links.
-
- - MVS = VLSC = Techbench
- They all have identical .ISO's, and it’s only their names that are different.
-
- Some file naming examples -
- Techbench - Win10_1809Oct_English_x64.ISO
- MVS - en_windows_7_professional_with_sp1_vl_build_x86_dvd_u_677896.ISO
- VLSC - SW_DVD9_Win_Embed_Industry_ENT_8.1_64Bit_English_-3_MLF_X19-82965.ISO

- File names explained https://www.betaarchive.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26026
-
- Techbench hosts Retail .ISO's.
- MVS hosts both Retail and Volume .ISO's.
- VLSC hosts Volume .ISO's.

- - Official method (Public Links):
-
- - Windows 7
- https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows7
-
- - Windows 8.1
- https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows8ISO
- You can directly download the .ISO's from here.
-
- - Windows 11
- https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11
- You can directly download the .ISO's from here.
-
- - Windows 10
- https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows10
-
- By default it doesn't provide the .ISO to Windows OS users directly, but instead provides a tool
- named 'Media Creation Tool' which then CREATES the .ISO (which means their .ISO can't be verified
- by using a hash) which is based on ESD. To get the direct .ISO file you have to change the
- browser user agent to some other operating system than Windows. (an .ISO created with the Media
- Creation Tool is smaller than the directly downloaded .ISO)
-
- - Office
- Office .ISO links requires a log in and keys to download the .ISO.
- However, Office .ISO links are static. Below, is a partial list of places where you can download
- Office ISO easily.

- This collection offers major Windows, Server, and Office (Including VL and retail)
- .ISO in all languages. This collection uses the SVF method to create .ISO’s.
-
- How to use .svf?
- As an example, if you want to download an .ISO of a French language version of Office 2010
- SP1 Pro Vl, you first have to download a full-size English .ISO, and then after that's done,
- download a small-size French .svf file.
- Following that, put English .ISO, French svf file and tool (SVF-extractor) into a folder all
- together. Then use the extract option in the tool, and it will generate an original French
- language .ISO.

-
- - Alternatives for the original ISO:
-
- - ESD to ISO (Windows 8.1 and 10)
- In this method, a ESD file (which is verifiable) is converted to the full ISO (which can not be
- verified). This method is similar to the official 'Media Creation Tool' ISO creation process.
