Install Windows 8.1 using a USB drive.
Install Windows 8.1 using a USB drive.
On your device I believe you can input the product key to download it and create an ISO file for a flash drive. After installation, you should re-enter the key when prompted. (If others disagree, trust their opinion)
This standard assesses Windows 8.1 Enterprise. To create a USB for Windows 8.1, Microsoft has provided the Media Creation Tool, accessible at the specified link. It employs compressed and encrypted ESD files. If you prefer the standard WIM file for setup, let me know.
It looked like Linus mentioned entering the product key to obtain the ISO file, which you could then use to install it. As you mentioned, I’ll keep this approach until someone gives a different response! Thanks.
I attempted this approach to get the ISO, but when I clicked "create media," it led me to a page stating an error: file not found. Would pressing the button help?
I possess a key for Windows 8.1 Pro... Look for a reliable source to locate the ISO file, as the original site may no longer be available.
Looking for an explanation of PM. It stands for Project Management. Let me know if you'd like more details!
