I don't understand the referral. I was not using Rufus. I only use Rufus after it makes the ISO and with Rufus. All I do is just use the basic feature of copying the iso over to a USB

This, like Rufus, uses Fido for the ISO download capabilities.

What you're experiencing here is the error returned by Fido.

I'm a newbie and a complete plebe and I know that this is not the right area but could you tell me how to fix it please?

In early 2023, Microsoft have stepped up the anti-abuse protection of their ISO download servers and are a lot more proactive (read: aggressive) at banning IP addresses that they consider to be either putting excessive stress on their servers, or that come from a specific region that they want to filter out.

If you aren't trying to download an ISO from a download restricted country, this error usually occurs if you (or someone behind the same external IP as the one you use) downloaded a few too many ISOs in rapid succession, and Microsoft have banned that IP as a result. If that is the case, this should be a temporary ban that expires after something like 24 hours, so you should either wait a day or two or, if possible, get a new IP address. But, again, because it is Microsoft-controlled and IP based, there is nothing Rufus can do about it and, as a matter of fact, if you try to download an ISO from https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/software-download, you should find that you get the same error.

This tells you more information. TLDR: either wait for a couple or days or get another IP address.

If you were to download them from Microsoft, you would have the same error, so it's not a MicroWin issue, but something caused by MS
