So you've downloaded the file and it's in your downloads? If so, right click on the file and unzip it. Open the unzipped folder and you'll see the Windows command file, right click and run as admin. It'll automatically open a CP window and start downloading and compiling itself, it'll take a while but it does it all for you. When it's done press 0 to exit, the ISO will be in the folder. Then just use something like Rufus to stick it on a Usb

Weird that MCT now creates this build 26200.6899 which has the known bug in WinRE environment not detecting USB keyboard and mouse. 😵‍💫😝🤷‍♂️

I guess I'll pass for now and wait for a fix. 🤞

The team that owns MCT doesn't manage Windows releases, they only have responsibility for their tool.

Typically there's two "official" releases:
- Release to Web (RTW) or what old-timers used to call RTM, but is now known as General Availability.​
- First CU immediately after GA. In the old days, when there was RTM, GA was originally the first patch release.​

Most OEM's would wait for the first CU after the official release before they switched over. This year, the Windows team has a streak of terrible QA and released 4 Out of Band (emergency) updates in 2025.

Having a broken USB keyboard and mouse in WinRE might result in yet another OOB. :facepalm:

Since the MCT folks aren't the same people who own Windows releases, they just go by a planning schedule. And unfortunately the release they picked in advance has a severe bug. They'll probably end up pushing November's CU as the next 25H2 MCT image.

Most OEM's would wait for the first CU after the official release before they switched over. This year, the Windows team has a streak of terrible QA and released 4 Out of Band (emergency) updates in 2025.

Having a broken USB keyboard and mouse in WinRE might result in yet another OOB. :facepalm:

Since the MCT folks aren't the same people who own Windows releases, they just go by a planning schedule. And unfortunately the release they picked in advance has a severe bug. They'll probably end up pushing November's CU as the next 25H2 MCT image.

I thought RTM stands for Release To Manufacturing. 😎
We'll see what happens after we get the OOB fix. 😉
I saw it could be 26200.6901 with KB5070773. I'll just wait for it.

I tried a clean install with 26200.7171 and OOBE\BYPASSNRO still works fine with this MCT USB install media. 😉

Edit:
Same is true with Canary Build 28000.1 downloaded from UUPDUMP. 👍

I wrote a script, which determines which ISO version is currently delivered by Media Creation Tool.

Code: 
>Current_MCT_Version.bat
Current MCT ISO is build 26200.7623 (January 2026)

It dynamically queries the WU back-end for the latest products.cab, and extracts the build number. You can run the script periodically to confirm if there's a newer version of the ISO available, or if it's the same version as before.

Thanks, but I'm not looking at the actual ISO itself. MCT works by downloading a products.cab file, which details what images are available (by Windows language, and Client vs. Business versions).

The CAB file has a single XML file with download links. Each link has the ISO's build number in the filename details. So we don't actually need to download the ISO to find what version is served by products.cab.

That tutorial is for when you have an actual ISO in your hands. I've already posted a separate script to find the CORRECT version info from any given ISO. The DISM method provided can be misleading and inaccurate.

The products.cab is always correct, since MS doesn't use the DISM version of the ISO in the XML details.
