I read 10+ different article and this is the only one that actually worked. I had to take an additional step to find the volume that Windows was installed on as the volume was partitioned and didn’t have a mapped letter – in the command prompt I used ‘diskpart’ then ‘list volume’ then ‘select volume 0’ then assign letter=A (C was already in use for a non-Windows volume). Then used your article to carry out the rest.

This saved me hours of potentially having to reconfigure my PC!

Comment on How To Enable Group Policy Editor (Gpedit.msc) In Windows 11 Home by TageB https://www.itechtics.com/enable-gpedit-msc-windows-11/#comment-496820 Fri, 22 Nov 2024 00:02:21 +0000 https://www.itechtics.com/?p=54774#comment-496820 In reply to Gordon.

I got the same error. Because we used PowerShell instead of CommandPrompt, CMD. Use CMD! I also missed that just gpedit.msc is a file and the GroupPolicy and GroupPolicyUsers are folders. Took some time. Small things big problems. It is not easy to be clear enough.
Download and install gpedit didn’t work for me. Windows 11 Home, 23H2.

Comment on Download Windows 7 ISO Files (Direct Download Links) by SwimmeRM https://www.itechtics.com/windows-7-download-iso/#comment-486084 Sat, 16 Nov 2024 12:53:30 +0000 https://www.itechtics.com/?p=71841#comment-486084 Hello again,
for this comment I simply choose ‘Notify me of follow-up comments by email’ option, like I’m doing again now (so I made no real sign up about this post nor choose to subscribe to it).
Anyway, please just let me finally add this comment because I’m trying to report an unsuccessful download status too, that hasn’t changed from my Internet side(&country), while also adding some more details of simple additional connectivity tests made to try to understand why final web site page is unreachable. (BTW if you can, I agree you to remove this initial part while publishing my comment now hopefully more meaningful also for others outside US).

FYI, I guess there may have been some Internet host connectivity changes since this article was last updated (back in May 2024) and this seems to impact download attempts from some countries outside US.
Here I’m just sharing my unsuccessful download experience results too, while also adding more details rather than just simply asking you “why windows 7 downloads aren’t working”, ok ?

After I too unsuccesfully tried to download ‘Windows 7 Ultimate With SP1 64-bit ISO [English]’ I found that redirection URL you’re using (https://www.itechtics.com/?dl_id=192) corresponds to a currently unreachable destination page (https://ia802508.us.archive.org/35/items/windows-7-sp0-sp1-msdn-iso-files-en-de-ru-tr-x86-x64/en_windows_7_ultimate_x64_dvd_x15-65922.iso) that in my MS Edge browser only displays the message:
“Hmmm… can’t reach this page
ia802508.us.archive.org took too long to respond”
So do you have any idea or more suggestions to share on how to possibly avoid or solve this ?

P.S. Please also note that while http://www.archive.org [207.241.224.2] correctly replies when I successfully ‘ping …’ it, I only receive “Destination port unreachable” error message replies from ia802508.us.archive.org [207.241.228.198] that should be hosting above mentioned unreachable web page, and so I can also add that my additional ‘pathping -q 4 (or 8 or 12) ia802508.us.archive.org’ tests only sometimes can reach ‘6939-mlb-ix-equinix.com [185.1.106.24]’ an intermediate routing host from my country before stopping. After I informed my local ISP they confirmed they too were unable to reach same known download web page via mobile browsers while using 3 major different nationwide mobile phone connectivity operators from my country outside US.

Again thanks in advance for your attention and next reply (while hoping this more specific comment might be accepted and published this time).
Regards
Rob

i had the same story, but – you need Media Creation Tool (which looked like it is upgrading my Win OS or wtf) and after installing it i tried the first method from this article and it works! (two lines of cmd script)
