@alexThunder Tried that aswell. That one actually went through, but on startup, Windows Setup complained that it couldnt find any Product Key for an unattended installation (which I was never trying to do). Neither UEFI nor Legacy/BIOS boot did the trick. Also tried resetting the BIOS to optimized Defaults

@alexThunder I used the Media Creation Tool to generate an ISO, which I then put on the USB with Rufus

@alexThunder Neither am I. Gonna try again tomorrow
So I got my sister a new PC and being the thrifty (and masochistic) fuck I am, I thought I'd build it myself. I built the PC yesterday (side note: Stick to backplate coolers, Push-Pin is the bane of my existence, patience and fingers) and wanted to install Windows today.
I shit you not, I ran this godforsaken spawn of Satan of 'Windows Media Creator Tool' no less than 5 times with different USB sticks, different Ports, turned off AV and FW and as Administrator but stuff ain't working. After ~30min of downloading Windows each time, it always told me in usual Windows manner "Something went wrong", because who needs decent error messages anyway...
