Windows Vista Free Direct Download Link

The difference between Windows Vista with previous operating system from Microsoft is that consumers can buy and download Windows Vista online from Windows Marketplace and have access to the software instantly. This may be due to increase confidence on anti-piracy measures built into Vista. But apparently, everyone who purchase the Vista license and product key via Internet will get the exactly same download links for 32-bit Windows Vista installation files, no matter it’s full or upgrade version and regardless of which title edition of Windows Vista bought.

Now the direct download links to the Windows Vista files purchased online have been leaked. As mentioned, the downloads are for 32-bit edition of Windows Vista (in order to get 64-bit Windows Vista installer, you need to order DVD from Microsoft after transaction). The Vista files is just like a complete DVD on retail market, can be used to install all editions – Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate (see comparison matrix), and either upgrade or complete full edition (see price differences). The only thing that matters is Vista product key given online, which will determine and unlock only the correct features assigned to the purchased edition.

The 3 Windows Vista installer package parts to download are listed:

  1. boot.wim (116 MB)
  2. install.wim (2.24 GB)
  3. X13-49120.exe (73.7 MB)

The files are hosting on the server on domain msft-dnl.digitalrivercontent.net owned by Digital River, one of the delivery partners for Vista and also the brain behind Windows Marketplace e-commerce store.

After downloading the files, simply double click on the executable (.exe) to start to install Vista. Note that 3 files must be put together in the same directory. You still need a product key where you can buy immediately from Windows Marketplace, or if you prefer Vista in a box, buy from Amazon.

If you have lost the direct download links, here is direct download links for the Vista files:

  1. boot.wim (116 MB)
  2. install.wim (2.24 GB)
  3. X13-49120.exe (73.7 MB)

There is also direct download links for 64-bit edition of Vista.

  • Hi,
    all links are denied, someone can be upload theses files, please ?
    Thank

  • If you are about to install Windows Vista, you should think about the product key. If you don’t enter the product key, you will end up with a OS that shuts down every hour.

  • Are these links down? When I click them it says denied…

    Are new links available (not torrents) or are all the Vista ones removed because Windows 7 is now out?

    THX

  • Doesn't work, sorry guys, i tried on the suggestion of another site

  • Just download the Windows Automated Installation Kit (Windows AIK). You need to validate that you're running genuine Microsoft OS to download. Either one is a disk image that you need to burn to a dvd, and then install as normal. I haven't tried them yet, since I'm downloading them both right now. Both are supposed to allow you to install THE Windows Vista family of OS (I assume this means any version of vista, but I may be wrong.)

  • Hi it say denied you are a cheater right

  • Not one of the links works! Thanks for wasting my time! I have a pc that came with Vista, but no discs. HP won't provide discs. F11 is disabled. All I want is to restore my system!

  • [...] wanting to double boot the first thing you should get your self is a retail Vista disc. See here link. If you can't make one with the directions there are other places just use G00gle. Second forget [...]

  • hello i want windows vista home basic edition in small size plz give me some link from where i can download windows vista home basic plz

  • i want vista

  • Jeez, guys, the links will say forbidden because microsoft have finally caught on that people are using them to download them without consent ( probably piracy ). And without trying to sound nasty, if you had all read the above post with a little bit more care, you would have found that it isnt one specific version, but includes ALL VERSIONS of windows vista. If you have all three files and are unsure of what to do, the place all 3 files into a folder, and click ''X13-49120.exe'' and accepting it. the exe will the unpack all the files needed to either ''upgrade'' or to create a ''bootable'' ISO ( disc image, google it) which you can then burn to dvd to do a clean install. Sorry for my little rant, but peoples refusal to read posts properly on any site annoys me, considering the work that the author/s have put it to bring such fantastic content.
