MAS scripts should be safe, but what about Windows iso you can download from MASSGRAVE website

gemew26@lemmy.dbzer0.com to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com – 40 points –

I recently asked if MAS was save to activate windows, it turns out it was as I hoped.

However, I've one last doubt: I downloaded the iso from MASSGRAVE (it-it_windows_10_consumer_editions_version_22h2_updated_may_2024_x64_dvd_49ddadb6.iso) and I installed that already.

Also, I logged in my accounts and used sensible passwords already, should I be worried about this? (I ask because some pirates said the ISO should have been downloaded from Microsoft website :/ ).

Please let me know your opinions

You can always download the ISO from Microsoft's site. Just spoof your User Agent's OS to Linux and it will automatically redirect you to a Windows ISO download page.

I managed to download a legti ISO by spoofing my user agent to linux, I'll check the checksum of the two ISO I have asap

Wait really? What's the site, just go to microsoft.com or something with linux and it redirects you? That's hilariously petty but also useful lmao.

Specifically the OS download links. If you're running Windows, it'll link you into the media creation tool instead however since this tool is a Windows Executable it'll not work on Linux by default, so they link to ISO files instead.

Can't you also decide to generate an iso with the media generation tool? I believe thats how I did it a while ago.
