Method 1: Automatically Create Recovery Media Windows ADK Installation A pop-up notification will appear if no Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) is detected. Click Download and the wizard will guide you through the Windows ADK installation process. Deployment Tools and Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) must be installed to build recovery media. Installing Windows ADK may take a few minutes. If you want to download the Windows ADK in advance, we recommend downloading version 1803. Notes: • Starting with Windows 10 (version 1809), Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) is released separately from Windows ADK. To create recovery media, both the Windows ADK and WinPE packs need to be downloaded and installed. For more information, please refer to Microsoft's article, Create bootable WinPE media. • Internet connection must be available when downloading and installing Windows ADK. If you cannot use the online ADK installer, refer to Microsoft's article Install the Windows ADK offline. • WinPE for Windows 10 (version 1803) is suggested for the download and installation through the Windows ADK. To check its compatibility with your device, you can refer to Microsoft's article What's New in Windows PE. 06
