Ok, so my computer had a factory reset, and I'm stuck back at Windows 8. I am currently attempting to get back to Windows 8.1. Previously, I had y copy of Windows 10 reserved, and couldn't wait to start developing on the UWP. Once, I get Windows 8.1 again and I sign into my Microsoft account, will my reservation, and the GWX process still be valid? If not, what can I do to get it back?
So, I will have to burn the ISO myself? – an earwig – 2015-07-26T15:57:35.987
@James_Parsons - No; Eventually you will just install Windows 10 by indicating you want Windows 10 then downloading it through Windows Update I suggest you do some more reading on the subject. – Ramhound – 2015-07-26T20:30:33.460
I have. Apparently, on Windows 8.0 and 8.1, the ISO will act as an installer, but in Windows 7, you will have to prepare the ISO first. – an earwig – 2015-07-26T21:45:49.177
I have not read the same information. – Ramhound – 2015-07-26T22:06:10.547

That is because Windows 8.x has a built-in feature to mount .ISO files and Windows 7 does not. – Ramhound – 2015-07-26T23:08:48.290
