Installing Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) for Windows 10

Before installing Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) for Windows 10, it is essential to determine whether your computer is x86- or x64-based. You can do this by checking the architecture of your computer's operating system. If you are unsure about the version, refer to 'How to determine whether a computer is running a 32-bit version or 64-bit version of the Windows operating system.'

RSAT can be installed on both x86- and x64-based editions of the full release of Windows 10, Professional, Enterprise, or Education editions. However, it is crucial to note that RSAT can only be installed on computers running the full release of Windows 10 Professional, Windows 10 Enterprise, or Windows 10 Education. It cannot be installed on Windows RT, computers with an Advanced RISC Machine (ARM) architecture, or other system-on-chip devices.

To download and install RSAT, you will need to use the Microsoft Download Manager. This tool is free and allows you to suspend active downloads and resume failed downloads. You can also download multiple files at once and large files quickly and reliably using this manager. The Microsoft Download Manager solves several potential problems, including pausing or resuming downloads and downloading large files.

However, there are some limitations when using the Microsoft Download Manager. For instance, you might not be able to pause active downloads or resume failed downloads. Additionally, files larger than 1 GB may take longer to download and might not download correctly. In such cases, you will have to download individual files on the 'Thank you for downloading' page after completing your download.

Another limitation is that you may not be able to download multiple files at the same time using the Microsoft Download Manager. If you do not have a download manager installed and still want to download the file(s), you can use stand-alone download managers, such as the Microsoft Download Manager or web browsers like Internet Explorer 9, which include a built-in download manager.

In summary, installing RSAT for Windows 10 requires determining your computer's architecture, ensuring that it meets the system requirements, and using the Microsoft Download Manager to download and install the tools.
