Obviously this isn't piracy. If you aren't convinced, use the tool from Microsoft and follow the instructions there. Perhaps it's more simple for you. You can select the version during the install.
You will need a valid Windows 10 key to activate your install.

I will be honest, i didn't read all 27 page of the thread, but with a thread search i haven't seen an option to download the esd in other languages.
Is there the possibility to do so?

Benchmark Scores I dont have time for that.
Incase anyone ever wants to utilize WDS I created a script that will pull boot.wim and install.esd

The it will let you choose the version and it will conver the esd to wim so you can import it into WDS.

Code:
@echo off
SET build=1.0
title MCT + WDS update tool (BETA) v%BUILD%

:: Lets set our variables, always set them before work blocks.
set prokey=W269N-WFGWX-YVC9B-4J6C9-T83GX
set entkey=NPPR9-FWDCX-D2C8J-H872K-2YT43

:checkPrivileges
:: Check for Admin by accessing protected stuff. This calls net(#).exe and can stall if we don't kill it later.
NET FILE 1>nul 2>&1 2>nul 2>&1
if '%errorlevel%' == '0' ( goto ask) else ( goto getPrivileges )

:getPrivileges
:: Write vbs in temp to call batch as admin.
if '%1'=='ELEV' (shift & goto ask)                             
for /f "delims=: tokens=*" %%A in ('findstr /b ::- "%~f0"') do @Echo(%%A
setlocal DisableDelayedExpansion
set "batchPath=%~0"
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
Echo Set UAC = CreateObject^("Shell.Application"^) > "%temp%\OEgetPrivileges.vbs"
Echo UAC.ShellExecute "!batchPath!", "ELEV", "", "runas", 1 >> "%temp%\OEgetPrivileges.vbs"
"%temp%\OEgetPrivileges.vbs"
exit /B

:ask
echo.
echo Hello, we are going to download the MCT.
Echo.
echo This only works on Windows 10 and maybe 8? and Server 2012+
echo.

echo.

pause
exit

It downloads and utilizes the Media Creation Tool, so the software is untampered with from MS.

I then delete and cleanup files after its done, leaving you with only the wims you want/need

Its a little cheat of mine when im doing WIM updates, since I dont bother doing DISM servicing, since I do the rest via MDT or via GPO.

Windows 10 2004 added to the op.



Fresh install w/o drivers ~ 25 GB


Task manager now distinguishes between solid and hard drives and shows GPU temperature. Sweeeet.

I think semi-final is the best we can expect at this point. Still, worth trying out. This update is supposed to have a lot of changes that remove aspects that pertain to privacy issues.
