I currently have no Windows system on any PC. I have Ubuntu. I want to
purchase and download a Win10 bootable install iso for use on another
PC (an old Dell Inspiron N4110 laptop). I can make a bootable USB
stick using linux command line something like:

dd if=windowsinstall.iso of=/dev/sdb

I know how to do that.

What i need to know is where to purchase and download the iso file that
will boot the laptop into the Windows 10 installation routine. I assume
I will get a long registration code when I purchase the file that I
will need to enter during installation. I prefer to get the file from
Microsoft if possible. TIA. Bill S.

You can download Windows ISO from this link:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10

Use your Linux machine to download the full ISO and then you can burn it
to a DVD drive. Not sure if Linux Junk has any tools to create DVD
disks but that is your task to find out. Microsoft has a Media Creation
tool but it won't run on your Junk machine. Linux Junk and Microsoft
are not generally compatible.

After creating the media, you can install it without the product key and
use it for 30 days for free. During that time you can test whether you
have the intelligence to use it permanently. If this is the case then
you need to buy a product serial number from Amazon as they have some
cheap ones. Amazon UK has got one for £7.00

this price might go up after 29th March when we are completely
independent showing two fingers to German Nazis and French frogs.


Of course Linux junk doesn't have any software to burn a DVD, people who
use Linux are too stupid to know how to use it. I use Linux all the time
on my desktop, and simply replying to you obnoxious post proves I must be
stupid.
