Every time a new version of Windows 10 is released, the Media Creation tool that allows you to download Microsoft's operating system is also updated. But the new version does not allow the users to download older versions of Windows 10.
Below we will make a small one archive .bat that will allow you to download any build of Windows 10 with the Media Creation tool.
Open the notepad (we recommend the Notepad + +), copy and paste the following code. When finished, save the file with the .bat extension.
