The ISO filename should be Win10_xxxx_x64.iso. Here is an example.


ls -lgh *.iso
-rw-r--r--@ 1 staff   5.1G Jan 19  2020 Win10_1909_EnglishInternational_x64.iso


Example of MD5sum...


openssl md5 Win10_1909_EnglishInternational_x64.iso 
MD5(Win10_1909_EnglishInternational_x64.iso)= d1f08aea37586702f6fbe2fe3ea8c3fd

The file was downloaded from Microsoft as the link in the Boot Camp Assistant does take you directly there and the file was downloaded twice and shows up in the window to choose the ISO. I set the partition parameters and click install and that's when I am told to select a 64 bit ISO. Not sure how to check the MD5sum even though I did see the chart for the various languages.


Appreciate your help Loner T.

I apologize Loner T,

When the file is downloaded it creates a disc image named: CCCOMA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV9.

It should not be automatically mounted, till BCA asks for the location.

What is automatically loaded into the ISO image box by the Assistant is: /Users/username/Downloads/Win10_2004_English_x64.iso.download/Win10_2004_English_x64.iso.

This indicates an incomplete/partially completed download. If the download completed successfully, you should have


/Users/username/Downloads/Win10_2004_English_x64.iso.
