Why Media Creation Tools keep "redownloading windows" after failed upgrade?

I use media creation tools to upgrade windows.


Upgrade fails for so many reasons. VMware installed and must be uninstalled. Sometimes unknown reasons.


I just try again. Every time I want to try again, it will "download" windows again.


Why should it be? It can't be checked that it has downloaded windows from before and the file is there?


Actually, where does the windows get downloaded anyway by media creation tools?


My SSD space in drive C is limited and I definitely want to save 8 GB of hard disk from that extra copy of windows.
