Try a Different Browser: If you're experiencing issues with one browser, try downloading using a different browser like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Microsoft Edge. 4. Check Internet Connection: Ensure that your internet connection is stable and not causing interruptions during the download process. 5. Verify System Requirements: Make sure that your system meets the minimum requirements for the version of Windows you are trying to download. 6. Disable Antivirus/Firewall: Sometimes, security software can interfere with downloads. Temporarily disable your antivirus and firewall and try downloading Windows again. 7. Download from Official Microsoft Website: Make sure you are downloading Windows from the official Microsoft website to avoid any potential risks from third-party sources. If you encounter any specific error messages or face any difficulties during these steps, feel free to provide more details so I can assist you further.
