We have had Windows 10 among us for some time but still, after several months, it is now that we can say that Microsoft's platform is interesting. In the desktop version, users have many new features that make Windows an ideal operating system.
Microsoft's cell phone world, despite not living at its best, Microsoft Store enables us to have applications that we could only have on the desktop. In the world of video games, the advances are also remarkable, but And in the IoT? What about the free dishes? Can we use Windows 10 IoT Core?
Today we can install Windows 10 IoT Core on Raspberry Pi and Dragonboard boards. The first one has an interesting price and a great community so it is important to highlight installing Windows 10 IoT Core on it.
Windows 10 IoT Core is available for free
At the same time, this time, Windows 10 IoT Core continues be free so that we can create our robots or smart devices with Windows 10. To install Windows 10 IoT Core on Raspberry Pi 3, we will first need the following:
- Raspberry pi 3
- Class 10 microsd card with usb adapter
- HDMI cable
- 5V microusb power cable.
Having this, we must now turn to Microsoft Download Center and download the Windows 10 IoT Core Admin Panel app. This application will help us to install Windows 10 IoT Core on the Raspberry Pi board. Once we have downloaded it, we connect the microsd card to our PC thanks to the usb adapter.
We execute the Admin Panel app and a window will appear where we will have to choose our board, in this case Raspberry Pi 3, in which drive to save and install Windows 10 IoT Core.

The device name and the administrator password that we will use. We mark the license agreement and we can press the button «Download and install». The microsd card creation procedure will begin; when i finish, we have to unplug the microsd card and install it in the Raspberry Pi.
Una vez que iniciemos el tablero, nuestro dispositivo conectado aparecerá en la aplicación DashBoard. Mediante la opción «probar algunos ejemplos» de esta aplicación podemos enviar aplicaciones que se pueden ejecutar en nuestra Raspberry Pi 3.
Windows 10 IoT Core does not work like a classic operating system but rather It is a duration of Windows 10 that will allow us to run and install our own applications that we created for Windows 10 and for Raspberry Pi 3. This can be achieved thanks to Visual Studio Code and all for free.
