Win 10 iso

When I try to download win 10 ISO using XP it stops part way and says
source file can not be found, does not matter who I try to get it from.
Would I have more success using an old slow win 7 laptop.

After how long? I gather each download link is only valid for 24 hours ...

Windows XP users are considered stupid by Microsoft's AI system and
you've just proved it here.

Longshot, but worth mentioning: Did you download to
an NTFS partition? FAT32 won't hold a file over about
4 GB.

An error from Internet Explorer? Or what browser?

There are two benefits to the Win7 laptop

1) Guaranteed NTFS partition for C: , with
no 4GB storage limit like a FAT32 partition
would have.

2) The download method used, it actually fetches
a *different* version of the DVD (shocker!).

If you *had* succeeded in downloading the 64-bit
Win10 by using WinXP, you would have been sorry,
because it needs a *dual-layer* DVD if you're
using DVD media. If you're using USB sticks
for this, then (2) makes no difference.

Here are some media sizes for your consideration.

WinXP (page offers direct-download links for 24 hours)

Win10_1903_V1_English_x64.iso 4,939,528,192 bytes == dual layer
Win10_1903_V1_English_x32.iso 3,493,140,480 bytes

Win7 (page offers MediaCreationTool1903, depends on .NET 4+)

Win10-64bit-mediacreation-1903-7OSes.iso 3,967,483,904 bytes
Win10-32bit-mediacreation-1903-7OSes.iso 2,894,200,832 bytes

I think now you can see how a Win7 laptop
is of benefit to you for this effort. The
outcome is different (and more manageable).
