How to download ISO of an older version of Windows 10

When you download Windows 10 ISO, it always offers the latest version of Windows 10. And if you need a different or older version of Windows 10, which is supported? In this article, we will show you how to download and install an older version of Windows 10 ISO.

How to download an older version of Windows 10

Whenever one of the older versions of Windows 10 reaches the end of life, Windows 10 users need to update to the latest version. They cannot in any case download a particular version even if they are supported. For example, Windows 10, version 1803, the end of support was November 12, 2019. The next version after v1803 was v1903, but users need to update to Windows 10 v1909. However, there is a way to download the ISO of an older version by following these steps:

1. Download Rufus. This is software that can create a bootable USB drive for Windows.
2. Double-click to launch the software. It is a portable application and requires no installation.
3. In Startup selection drop-down list select Disc or ISO picture
4. Then click on the arrow next to the drop-down list which has To select
5. To choose Downloadand click on it
6. It will download and execute a script, then display a popup window.
7. Select Windows 10 and click Download
8. It will then display another window where you can select the version of Windows 10
9. From now on, I can see version 1507 at 19H2 available for download.
10. Then you need to select the edition of Windows 10, i.e. Home, Pro or Education.
11. Finally, select the language, architecture and click the download button to start downloading the ISO file.

The prompt that lets you select a version of the operating system you plan to download opens behind the Rufus window, so look, you miss it. At this point, I would suggest minimizing all open windows and moving the Rufus window to the left or right to locate the version selector

Rufus acts as download manager for ISO. If you are using a third-party download manager, I suggest that you check the box that says – Download using a browser. In the event of an interruption, Rufus will be able to better manage the ISO file.

Although Rufus allows you to download even the unsupported version of Windows 10, I suggest that you download only the supported version. Otherwise, Windows will be automatically forced to upgrade to the latest version.

I hope the tutorial was easy to understand and that you were able to download the ISO from an older version of Windows 10 ISO.
