Microsoft provides an image to install Windows IoT which can be downloaded here and it’s basically installed into a storage device (very common to see SD Cards.) If you download the Windows IoT dashboard, you will get an .exe file which will install the dashboard. The dashboard will allow you to download the OS from the Windows Store, and also install it onto a storage device.
