    How to troubleshoot directory problems


    On this computer with Windows 1909 I've just downloaded a third version of mediacreationtool20H2.

    Also on this computer years ago I downloaded an older Windows 10 iso.

    The older Windows 10 iso I'm able to open and view setup.exe.

    The new Windows 10 iso I need help in opening the iso and viewing setup.exe

    If the iso is clicked it opens a box with windows then rapidly closes.

    The 20H2 media creation tool never opens.

    How can the directory be troubleshooted so that a brand new download can be opened to setup?

    This is the view after launching the old media creation tool.
    The brand new download I would like to open to this window.
    How can the directory be troubleshooted so that the new download opens to this Window?

    A new user named test was created.

    The computer was rebooted.

    When test was opened it displayed:
    Hi
    We're getting things ready for you.
    This may take a few minutes.
    Almost there.

    Log on was performed with password from the administrative account.
    Firefox was opened.
    Media creation tool was downloaded.
    It behaved in the same way as the above images.

    How can the download be explored and opened so that setup.exe can be viewed?
    How can the directory problem get fixed?
