Does it double-check the integrity of the download by verifying MD5 checksums?


Does the media creation tool isolate itself from its host PC in some way?


Just wondering, because I'm currently experiencing an issue (bug or glitch, I don't know what it is but thankfully it's probably not malware) with my current Windows 10 PC and I need some assurance/clarification that this issue won't spread/happen again to the next clean install/instance of Windows 10 on this same PC, given that, I will be running the media creation tool on this same PC that is currently experiencing the issue. (I will delete all current partitions on my next Windows installation, letting it create new, clean/default ones)


Sorry if this is a stupid question. It probably is.


Really appreciate any authoritative, accurate input.


Thank you and have a nice day :)
