Windows 8 Media Creation Tool Download
- Where can I download Windows 8 legally, from Microsoft? 5 answers
I bought a product key for Windows 8 a while ago, but I never got around to using it, because I can't seem to find a 64-bit Windows 8 ISO image anywhere.
Actually you can find the Windows 8 ISO download links on Microsoft’s website by just spending time. For your convenience I have already put the direct download links of Windows 8 ISO files in this article, hope this will help you.
Windows 8 iso operating system is a well-known entity in the world of computers and digital technology. Microsoft has been changing the way a computer can be used for many years. The Windows 8 Enterprise x64 90-day evaluation is available to developers to build and test Windows 8 apps on the final version of Windows. Price: $119.99 / Trialware Windows Operating System x64 Windows 8 x64 Windows OS x64 Windows x64 Operating System x64. Windows 8 Free Download 32 Bit – 64 Bit ISO official version. Here you can download complete ISO Windows 8 DVD bootable in single click and fast download. Windows 8 Product Review: Windows 8 is the most stable release in operating systems by Microsoft. Use the media creation tool (aprx. 1.41MB) to download Windows. This tool provides the best download experience for customers running Windows 7, 8.1 and 10. Tool includes: File formats optimized for download speed. Built in media creation options for USBs and DVDs. Optional conversion to ISO file format.
My processor is 64-bit, but my current installation of Windows 7 is 32-bit, meaning that trying to upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8 through the upgrade Assistant would give me a 32-bit ISO image, which is not what I want. I want a 64-bit ISO image, so I can at least use my processor and memory to the fullest.
Where can I find a legitimate verbatim Windows 8 ISO image to use with my product key?
This is not a duplicate. The linked question does not answer me.

- You can install from an honest but ISO hunt or third-party file if it checksums correctly. Finding authoritative checksums is the first challenge, but Microsoft publishes ISO image file names and checksums at MSDN Subscriber Downloads. Find your product brand name and the detail line item for the name of the ISO image and hashes. Start here to verify this information:File Name:
en_windows_8_x64_dvd_915440.iso
Languages: English
SHA1:1CE53AD5F60419CF04A715CF3233F247E48BEEC4
- Paste the hash into the search engine for plenty of links at sometimes dubious sources.
- Gun up your antivirus and avoid downloading any 'install assistants'.
- The download will complete about as quickly as it would from Microsoft's Akamai mirrors, and you verify the ISO image hash. If it checks out, it's legitimate even if you downloaded it with urgency. An honest ISO image file is still honest, just like Gucci from Overstock.com.
MSDN, Microsoft and anyone else in the know would check the hash if they downloaded direct from microsoft.com since large files downloads are more susceptible to errors that might not manifest until the installation process.
You'll have plenty of chances to discover install problems even if Microsoft hand delivered your image builder DVD. Don't let an unobtainable ISO image or flawed ISO image trip you over.
You should also back up your existing SLIC, BCD and extract your current product key for the reasons you can't anticipate.

The setup tool will download the 32-bit files if you use a 32-bit and the 64-bit files if you use a 64-bit edition of Windows. So install the 64-bit Windows 7 Enterprise Trial in a VM, run the Setup tool, enter your key, download the files and create an ISO (Install by creating media).

I was searching for a while to find this link, it let's you re-download your Windows 8 disc using your Windows 8 product key:
This is the answer. I guess Microsoft wanted to bury this link to encourage more sales.
Please re-post this link on any appropriate forums you're a member of.
