When visiting the Microsoft ISO Disc Image Download Page using a desktop PC, Microsoft will force you to use the Media Creation Tool to get the ISO. A direct download is not available, or you can use the Upgrade Assistant, to upgrade your current running system. This complicates things if you just want to grab the Windows 10 ISO image quickly, without jumping through Microsoft's hoops. Below we present step-by-step instructions for Firefox and Chrome, the two browsers we use ourselves:

Firefox

• Go to the Microsoft download page: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10ISO
• Press Ctrl+Shift+M
• Your browser will now switch to a reduced-size mobile view of the Microsoft page
• In the top center settings list, select "iPad" from the left most drop-down
• Reload the page by clicking the reload button or by pressing F5
• You'll now see that the page contents have changed and there's a "Select edition" drop-down that lets you pick whether you want the May 2019 Update ISO or the October Update for direct download
• On the next page you can choose between all the available languages
• And finally, the last page lets you pick whether you want the 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 10 ISO
• Upon clicking "Confirm," your download of the ISO file should begin.
