You have access to InstiDreamSpark Premium via your university and are setting up a new editing rig for your filmmaking course. You’ve downloaded Windows 10 Education and want to install it without using a disc, following instructions from a video. Need guidance on creating an ISO from the unzipped 3GB file you received, without any existing one? Be cautious about running executables since you don’t want to risk anything.

I think you should use a tool such as https://rufus.akeo.ie/ to prepare a USB drive

Yes, a standard right-click format option might not cover all needs.

There are many guides online that show this process clearly. I've set up Windows 10 on all my family's machines with this approach.

You must convert the USB flash drive to a particular format and ensure it's bootable. Additionally, you need to retrieve the ISO file data stored on it.

With the key for Win 10, simply get the ISO from torrents for the required version and use Rufus to write it onto a USB drive.
