Win 10 Media Creation Tool dud

Anyone having problems with the Win 10 Media Creation Tool
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10

Able to download ok, but I've tried it to run it on a number of pcs and keeps giving me an error 0x80072F76-0x20017.

My problem or Microsoft's?

Iv had this a couple of times ..
It happens when the system cant download the EULA from the microsoft servers.


try this first :

If that doesnt work you will either need a different internet connection (teather your mobile) or a VPN just to get past the bit where it displays the EULA.


forking microsoft :mad:

Don't need it anyway.

Install an add-on to Firefox (a similar one I think is available for Chrome), set it up right and you can get the ISOs/Disk Images that way without needing to faff around with the Media Creation Tool:
