I need to downgrade to 8.1, in order to upgrade to 10. Media create?
One of my machines has been running 10 for the past 6 months during the insider program, and it is still running 10. This machine used to be a windows 8.1 machine before, though it was originally an 8 machine, and the only install DVD that I have is just that, Windows 8. Knowing that in another month or so I am likely going to start to get activation warnings, I figured I would take some time today (off work) to downgrade and complete the upgrade process. One thing I would love to do, is bypass having to reload 8, and then upgrade to 8.1, and then upgrade to 10. Seems tedious. I would much rather downgrade straight to 8.1, and then upgrade to 10, but to do so, I need 8.1 media. Unfortunately, the media creation tool appears to only contain the option to create install media for 10, given that I am now running windows 10. Anyone know of a way I can get a hold of 8.1 install media? I'd prefer to create a bootable usb drive, but will settle for ISO as well. Thanks in advance.
