    Hi Acer,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Error code 715-123130 (along with your specific transaction ID ) occurs on Microsoft's software download servers when the connection is flagged or blocked. This usually happens due to active VPNs, proxies, location-hiding tools, third-party download managers, or temporary IP rate-limiting on Microsoft's validation endpoint.

    Please try the following steps to resolve the download failure:

    1. Disable VPN, Proxy, and Privacy Extension Tools: Turn off any active VPNs, proxy services, or browser extensions that mask your IP address or block scripts (such as ad blockers or tracking blockers).
    2. Use InPrivate / Incognito Mode or a Different Browser: Clear your current web browser's cache and cookies. Alternatively, open a new InPrivate (Edge) or Incognito (Chrome) window and try the download again from the official Microsoft page.
    3. Switch to a Different Network Connection: Connect your device to a different network (such as a mobile hotspot or alternative Wi-Fi network) to bypass any IP-level rate limits or corporate firewall blocks applied to your current network.
    4. Use Microsoft's Media Creation Tool (Alternative Method): If direct web ISO downloads continue to fail, download Microsoft's official Media Creation Tool directly onto your PC. Run the tool, accept the terms, select Create installation media for another PC, and choose the ISO file option. The tool uses a separate network path and avoids the web validation block.

    Please try these steps and let me know if you are able to complete the download!

    If this error occurs while downloading a Windows 11 ISO, download MediaCreationTool.exe from the Create Windows 11 Installation Media section and use it to create the ISO or USB instead of using the direct ISO download.

    Create the Windows 11 media

    1. Open Microsoft’s Download Windows 11 page.
    2. Find Create Windows 11 Installation Media—the middle download option.
    3. Select Download Now.
    4. Run MediaCreationTool.exe and accept the license terms.
    5. Select Create installation media for another PC.
    6. Choose the required language and architecture.
    7. Select:
      • ISO file to save an ISO to the PC, or
      • USB flash drive to create bootable installation media.

    Microsoft documents this as the supported installation-media process, and matching cases involving message code 715-123130 report that it avoids the failing direct-ISO download path.^1^^2^

    A blank USB drive must have at least 8 GB of space, and its existing contents will be deleted. Back up important files before reinstalling Windows.^1^

    If the Media Creation Tool also fails

    Code 715-123130 is reported when Microsoft’s download service rejects the connection, including connections that appear masked or originate from a restricted location. There is no local registry setting that overrides a server-side rejection.^3^

    Try these in order:

    1. Turn off any VPN, proxy, or location-hiding browser extension.
    2. If this is a managed business network, ask the network administrator whether web traffic exits through a proxy or gateway in another region.
    3. Retry from a different connection, such as another Wi-Fi network or a mobile hotspot.
    4. Try a private/incognito browser window or another browser.^4^

    Do not use unofficial ISO download sites or attempt to bypass geographic restrictions.

    If it remains blocked

    Contact Microsoft technical support and provide both identifiers exactly as displayed:

    • Message code: 715-123130
    • Reference ID: [GUID]

    Select the Get help option, describe the Windows download problem, and request investigation of the download-service rejection. Microsoft Support can route download and installation problems to the appropriate support channel.^5^

    If this was not a Windows 11 ISO download, include the exact Microsoft Download Center item name and its page address when contacting support, because the reference codes alone do not identify the file.
