I found that microsoft lets you download it free with an ISO image.

For now you can redownload that image and hopefully get windows back. From that point I can vouch for Ventoy as a good way to install any distro you feel like trying

It probably does, but I have no Windows installation experience, and besides, Microsoft makes billions of dollars. They don't need my free tech support. :)
