Software Assurance Image Downloads = .img?

When dealing with a client recently who has Software Assurance, we went to download their updated software as per their SA Agreement.

Here is what we ended up with:


Okay, the file's label says, "ISO", but the actual extension is .IMG.

What gives?

Seems that one need only RENAME that .IMG to .ISO and away we go! :D

Burn The ISO to disk, and then go ahead and run the software install/upgrade.

Thanks to the TechNet Forums for this one (You will be asked to create an identity for the forums to view this link).

Happy with Software Assurance!
