Windows 10 pro retail download requirements

If you downloaded an ISO file for Windows 10, the file is saved locally at the location you selected. If you have a third-party DVD burning program installed on your computer that you prefer to use for creating the installation DVD, that program might open by going to the location where the file is saved and double-clicking the ISO file, or right-click the ISO file, select Open with and choose your preferred DVD burning software.

If you want to use the Windows Disk Image Burner to create an installation DVD, go to the location where the ISO file is saved. Right-click the ISO file and select Properties. On the General tab, click Change and select Windows Explorer for the program you would like to use to open ISO files and select Apply. Then right-click the ISO file and select Burn disc image.

If you want to install Windows 10 directly from the ISO file without using a DVD or flash drive, you can do so by mounting the ISO file. This will perform an upgrade of your current operating system to Windows 10.

To mount the ISO file:

1. Go to the location where the ISO file is saved, right-click the ISO file and select Properties.
2. On the General tab, click Change… and select Windows Explorer for the program you would like to use to open ISO files and select Apply.
3. Right-click the ISO file and select Mount.
4. Double-click the ISO file to view the files within. Double-click setup.exe to start Windows 10 setup.
