What should I do if the Windows 11 ISO download fails?

1. Check the computer requirements for the installation

1. Go to Microsoft’s Windows 11 ISO page and click the Before you begin button.
2. Here, a list of requirements will pop up that you need to consider before trying to mount the ISO again. Read carefully all the steps required and make sure you meet them.

2. Disable your antivirus software

1. Click the expand arrow in the taskbar, then right-click the antivirus icon and select Avast shields control , then select Disable for 10 minutes from the drop-down menu.
2. If you have another antivirus application installed, you can follow the same steps above or similar to temporarily disable that application.

We strongly recommend you to use Windows 11-compatible antivirus software such as ESET that does not hinder your activities.

3. Run Disk Cleanup

1. Also click on Windows R to open a new Run window, Then type the following command: <strong>cleanmgr /VERYLOWDISK</strong>
2. Once the command completes, you will get a report detailing how much space you have managed to free up.
3. If you wish to select files to clean, type the following at the command line and press Enter to start it: <strong>cleanmgr /LOWDISK</strong>
4. You can also clean the disk using the following command, although it will erase less data than the command we provided in the previous step: <strong>cleanmgr /sageset:1</strong>

It will launch the Disk Cleanup application with only minimal settings selected, but you can select the options you want from the menu after launch.
