Kek, Microsoft... It's a small miracle that this god-awful fucking company is even still alive, much less any sort of force to be reckoned with.
Was looking for the Media Creation Tool download page - because a mate of mine said that if you don't have the right version of the Win10 installer, it will bluescreen at some point during the procedure if you have a PCIe SSD as target/system drive, so his recommend was to use the tool and make an installer with the latest version directly, rather than hope that's what you get when buying the OS and then maybe find out it wasn't, after the PC has already bluescreened. Naturally, Microsoft's own search function provides zero hits for "media creation tool" other than some user support pages with people asking for help about things...
Even google doesn't show any Microsoft page directly relating to the tool as any top result when again searching for the same thing, also adding "download" just to be extra verbose.
Plenty of 3rd party pages though, offering who-knows-what, and is-this-legit-I'm-not-sure...
Eventually I clicked a MS link that was apparently a help page for when the tool DOESN'T work for an user, and was able to navigate from there and download the friggin' thing.
WHYYYY!!!!! is it so hard to just offer a page, easily found/identifiable, that lets you download the damn thing directly, without jumping through a lot of hoops? What shit-for-brains idiot thought that it's better to make a website that makes finding information hard, and what even bigger idiot in management then went on to let him build said site?
*sigh* Oh well.
At least I've got it now...
Edit:
....Actually, no I don't. This version of the tool won't let me make a Win10 Pro installation. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST MOTHERFUCKING MICROSOFT!!! Again this same shit!!! I went through this bullcrap already two friggin years ago with the two different versions of the same tool that are essentially functionally the same, except one can't make win10 Pro installations. Drove me friggin buggo.
How can they be so fucking stupid and inept and still be in business?!?!?!????
