    Yes, all ISOs allowed on MDL are original untouched MVS ISOs.

    Once again @Enthousiast thank you very much for your contributions; much appreciated. Am happy/perturbed(?) to report that i'm either advancing or regressing, lol, but either way, i can finally follow your links and instructions without need for further clarification (if you recall, first couple of times i had to ask and ask) ^^

    On topic,
    Need some general advice if anyone can spare the time; probably buried/already answered somewhere in this megathread, so i'd understand if i got no reply :)

    I'd like to get the 19H2 update when it comes out for the AMD builds in the house (it only took them 2 years but hey, a smarter scheduler at last!). However i'd also like to remain on an LTSB..C..(?) build as i currently am with 1809.
    * 17763.805 Enterprise LTSC apparently, just checked.

    What should i do? I don't know how it goes with long term branches, but i assume they release towards the end of a build's life? ie should i just wait for.. what? Fake "1909"-1903-LTSB/C ?

    Next LTSC will be in a year or two.
    19H2 is already available, but msft still claims RP ring status for it, but you can already install it and install the 18362.xxx updates on it.

    Ok this might be a noob question.
    But what would I need to download to get a clean install on formatted drive/pc?
    This if I wanted to have windows 10 on it (activated) and dutch language? Are the language included by default? Or does it goes by windows update?

    Hello,
    I've downloaded " Windows 10 (consumer edition), version 1903 (updated June 2019) (x64) - DVD (English)". this one (x64) is bigger than 4.7 blank DVD. I want to burn it with stick USB for fresh installing. Can anybody point me what kind of software or tool please. Thanks a lot.

    Compress the install.wim to install.esd and it will fit dvd5.

    This simple tool can create a fitting ISO

    - use the ISO_With_Install.esd.cmd command to create an iso, fitting dvd5 or FAT32 formatted USB.
    - use the ISO_With_Install.swm.cmd to create an iso fitting FAT32 formatted USB.

    FAT32 formatted USB can boot EUFI and Legacy BIOS installs.

    If you don't plan on doing an UEFI install. you can format the USB NTFS and just extract the original ISO to it's root.

    Correct me if I misunderstand you. I have a 8 GB USB.
    First of all, I need to format this USB with NTFS.
    Secondly, Open Windows x64 with UltraISO and Extract it to USB Drive.
    Finally, Boot from USB for fresh install.

    For simple Legacy BIOS bootable USB, formatting NTFS and extracting the ISO (i would use winrar or 7zip for simple extracting job, or when you've used my tool, you can simply copy/paste the files from the ISO folder to the USB) to it's root would be sufficient.

    For booting UEFI, it needs to be FAT32 formatted and the install.wim needs to be compressed or split into swm files <4GB, or use Rufus or @freddie-o his tool.

    I think that my PC is Legacy BIOS. I will follow your steps. Thank you so much for your help and explanation. Have a nice day.

    For sometime now, if you buy Win 10 X64 Media from Microsoft, it comes on USB.

    Is it not an iso, or is the iso different for each machine?
