Short version:
     Downloading Windows 10 IoT https://connect.microsoft.com/windowsembeddedIoT/Downloads/DownloadDetails.aspx?DownloadID=57782

   Step 1 – Extract downloaded image

Extract the downloaded image Windows_IoT_Core_RPI2_BUILD file into a separate folder. The folder should include the following files: Flash.ffu, license.rtf, ReadMe.txt, WindowsDeveloperProgramForIoT.msi. We need to convert the .ffu file to a .img in order to flash it onto a SD card.

Step 2 – Download FFU2IMG

Download the ffu2img tool https://raw.githubusercontent.com/t0x0/random/master/ffu2img.py ('Save as' in your browser) – this will help us convert the .ffu file to a .img file. Copy the downloaded ffu2img.py file into the extracted folder from step 1.

To run the ffu2img tool you must have Python installed – you can download it here https://www.python.org/downloads/ (use the 2.7.x branch).

Step 3 – Run FFU2IMG to create .img file

Open a command prompt and run the ff2img tool from the command line:

C:\RPi\Windows_IoT_Core_RPI2_BUILD>ffu2img.py Flash.ffu
Input File: Flash.ffu
Output File: Flash.img
Block data entries begin: 0x600f8L
Block data entries end: 0x79398L
Block data chunks begin: 0x80000L
6441 blocks, 824448kb written - Delay expected. Please wait.
Write complete.

Wait a while – it will take some time to convert the image. If you get an write error try opening the command prompt as an administrator.

Flash .img file to SD Card

Download win32diskimager and extract to a folder. At this point you want to insert an empty SD card into your computer.

Open the Win 32 Disk Image tool and select the new Flash.img image – next select the drive letter of your SD card and press write:
