Several of you have said you also want an additional copy of Windows 10 in addition to your upgrade. Sharty writes: Hi, okay, so I downloaded Windows 10. yeah. But I want to make a copy of it to put on a disc. Not exactly clear on how to do that. Can you help me??
Sure! Click here to go the Software Download page for Windos 10. Once there, you can download the media creation tool.
When you download the tool, you can choose Run to start the process or Save, if you want to get to it later.
A window will open. Choose Create installation media for another PC.
Select your language, edition and architecture.
Choose Window 10 Home if you’re upgrading from the following systems:
Windows 7 Starter
Windows 7 Home Basic
Windows 7 Home Premium
Windows 8/8.1
Windows 8.1 with Bing
Windows 10 Home
Use Windows 10 Pro if you’re upgrading from:
Windows 7 Professional
Windows 7 Ultimate
Windows 8 Pro
Windows 8.1 Pro
Windows 8/8.1 Professional with Media Center
Windows 10 Pro
Select your media. You can choose between a flash drive and burning an ISO file that you’ll burn to DVD later.
When the media is created, choose Finish.

Here is a precaution I will offer: don’t use a flash drive larger than 32 GB if you plan to reuse the drive for other purposes afterward.
I used a 128 GB flash drive that was turned into a 32 GB flash drive in the process of having Windows 10 create an install flash drive. I formatted the drive and it will only retrieve 32 GB of space despite its original pre-Windows 10 install size of 128 GB.
NOT HAPPY! So be forewarned.
