Windows 9 Download ISO full version in single link. It is full offline installer of windows 9 activated for 32/64 bit. The developer didn’t have any plans to release Windows 9; it has long jumped from Windows 8 to Windows 10; more so, there is no official announcement from MSFT why it skipped Windows 9; however, there has been increasing speculation.
I am pretty curious to see and try out windows 1.0 as a virtual machine on my VMware Workstation, but am unable to get its ISO file. Can anyone please suggest me a good place(except search engines, I didn't find ISO files anywhere) where I can download the ISO file?
The closest I got was this, but this cannot be used to boot windows 1.0 as a VM.

You're probably not going to find it as an 'ISO', seeing as it's <500KB zipped. :)
But you can get it from WinWorld in their software library.
'WinWorld is an online museum dedicated to the preservation and sharing of abandonware and pre-release software, as well as any and all knowledge associated with such works.'
Can you trust this source? Dunno. ;)

Microsoft has started pushing out Windows 10 for users who have already registered for the free upgrade. Many users who have upgraded their Windows 7/8.1 installations to Windows 10 now want to perform a clean install of Windows 10.
After officially releasing Windows 10, Microsoft has released Windows 10 Media Creation Tool to help users download Windows 10 ISO images from Microsoft servers. The tool is useful for users who would like to clean install Windows 10 after upgrading to Windows 10.
Although the Media Creation Tool allows you create a bootable DVD or USB of Windows 10, many of you might be wondering if it’s possible to clean install Windows 10 right from the ISO image.
Install Windows 10 directly from ISO file
Well, it’s possible to clean install Windows 10 from an ISO file. Clean installing Windows 10 from ISO is not vastly different from clean installing Windows 10 from USB or DVD. The only difference is that we are not going to create bootable media while installing Windows 10 directly from the ISO file.
What about the product key?
Note that you won’t need a product key if you have legally upgraded your current PC from Windows 7/8.1 to Windows 10 and successfully activated it, before clean installing Windows 10 on the same PC.
When you are prompted to enter a product key during the product installation, click Skip button. Your PC will be automatically activated after installing Windows 10 as long as you have installed the same edition of Windows 10 was activated on your current PC by using the free upgrade offer.
However, when you clean installing Windows 10 on a different PC or newly built PC, you will have to enter a valid product key.
WARNING: Many users are reporting on Microsoft support forums that they are unable to activate their Windows 10 installation after the clean install. It looks like many users are having this issue. So, clean installing Windows 10 at this point of time might not be a good idea.

Step 3:Right-click on the Windows 10 ISO image file, and then click Mount option to mount the ISO image.
Step 4: Open up This PC, and then open up the newly mounted drive (containing Windows 10 installation files) by right-clicking on the drive and then clicking Open in new window.
Step 5: Double-click on the Setup.exe file.
Step 6: When you see the following screen, select the first option labelled Download and install updates (recommended), or you can also select the option titled Not right now, as we can always download and install updates after clean installing Windows 10.
If you have selected Download and install updates option, the setup will check for available updates and download them if available.
Step 7: Next is the user agreement screen where you need to click Accept button to accept the license terms to install and use Windows 10.
Step 8: Once again, the setup might start looking for updates and download them.
Step 9: Once everything is ready, you will see Ready to install screen.
Step 10: Here, select Keep nothing if you want to perform a clean install of Windows 10 by removing all installed programs and data. We have selected Keep personal files and apps as we don’t want to lose installed apps and important data.
And if you want to keep you data, please select Keep personal files option by clicking Change what to keep link.
Step 11: Finally, click Install button to begin installing Windows 10.
