While we appreciate the well intentioned offer a user should really use the official installers from microsofts website. As you yourself said
And that is absolutely correct, but downloading it from a random guy on a forum is also a bad idea. I'm not for one second saying that the files you have are not legit at all, its just that users need to be careful where they get files like that from, hence we prefer to link the official place to get them rather than than have to go on the word of someone who with all due respect is a total stranger to the person needing the file.
