    That's the beauty of the MCT. You can use it to make the USB drive AND the .iso. Anytime there is a new build, I update my flash drive and download the .iso to store on my NAS.

    For clarity, you have to redownload mct each build upgrade as it is version specific. It would be more obvious if they gave a name to each one eg instead of mediacreationtool.exe, it was named (say) mediacreationtool1709.exe.

    Would be nice if the name contained the build. I believe it shows in the properties of the .exe file, too.

    Starting with the MCT for 1703, it won't let you upgrade or build the media if there's a newer version available. Instead it tells you to download the latest MCT and gives you a link to do so.

    Yeah true but does not apply to older versions if course.

    I have a full set of the old MCTs and when needed have used them to deliberately create ISOs for 1607 and earlier. They still work (even for 10240).

    The problem is that you don't know what viruses or spyware the complete stranger that made the DVD might have inserted into it. You have know idea where this complete EBay stranger even obtained the ISO file from to make the DVD with. They might have used an ISO file that someone before them tampered with.
    Well the dvd has sold 386 copies, so if it was a virus, people would had pointed it out in the reviews a long time ago.

    As everyone has already said, it was foolish to buy a dvd when you could make your own.

    And USB sticks don`t just break, unless you break it.

    It's outdated now anyway, as 1803 was just released. It's still usable though. You'll just have to install and then do a major update to the latest build.
