Update 07.09.13 The iso now includes two versions. One that requires the press any key and one that does not. Choose which ever suits your needs. Also fixed the desktop PE url and updated some of the portable apps.

It’s a large download (about 500mb) so be patient it can take 10-20 minutes (depending on your internet speed) to download. After downloading burn either version of the bootable iso file to CD, USB or mount the iso.
Note: To prevent its use as a pirated operating system, Windows PE automatically stops running the shell and reboots after 72 hours of continuous use. This time period is not configurable.
