Hey I have a silly question...
I have a Mac given to me by family when my old laptop had an issue, but I'm finding it really awkward and/or not compatible with many things I do. I have an old Windows desktop that I've pulled out that still runs. However it's Windows 7 which is now out of support. I'm not paying a large fee to buy Windows 10. And it's too old to be compatible with the free Windows 11 upgrade.
I do have a Windows 10 rescue disc but it's specific to a different laptop so wouldn't have the right drivers.
I'd go Linux but it also doesn't do some stuff I want.
I did manage to find a loophole and get a downloadable Windows 10 iso by accessing the downloads page with the Mac, which showed me a "Windows 10 multi-edition iso". It's too large to fit as a bootable on the format offered by the stick drive and too large to fit as a bootable on a non-double sided DVD, but I could mount the iso directly from the partition.
However. Is this iso legit to use? It's from Microsoft so it wouldn't be cracked, but idk if there could be some tech issues cropping up or I could get stung for not being licensed to use it or some shit.
