Convert Windows 10 UUP to ISO

In this article, we will explain how you can convert Windows 10 UUP to ISO. Some months ago, Microsoft released a new Unified Update Platform (UUP) with Windows 10 Build 14986. As now ESD files are no longer available, we need to get the ISO from UUP Files. The method to convert UUP to ISO on Windows 10 is easy.

The whole idea of the Unified Update Platform is that the user will be able to download only the required package or files which have been updated or changed between builds called as a differential download.

It is a positive change as when Microsoft releases a new Build for PC or Mobile, the users will be able to download only the required amount of files for that particular released build and not the entire operating system. This would mean that the space required for download will be less and also the amount of time required for the download is also reduced.
