Feedback needed from other Media Creation Tool users?
Hi,
I'm just trying to understand why I'm having issues with the Media Creation Tool method for creating a bootable USB flash drive to clean install Windows 10. I know there are Diskpart and Rufus as alternatives so that's not a problem.
I'm annoyed that Ive had four attempts at the MCT method in the last 12 months and it only ever worked the first time and I cant for the life in me figure out why? The other 3 times it downloaded fine and then stopped at 51% while creating the media saying there had been an unexpected error .
I bought a brand new Sandisk Ultra USB 3.0 flash drive and did a Full format on the drive first..still no joy.
I'm wondering do you guys who have no issues with the Media Creation Tool turn off Real Time scanning (disable antivirus software) while you download and run the Media Creation Tool? In my case I have McAfee on my laptop. I cant see that being the problem because you should leave real time scanning running all the time
