I'm pretty sure interacting with storage directly (not through the filesystem) should require admin rights.

  Which it doesn't need to do when you tell it to make an iso.

    I guess it just shared some code path with Windows update (as it is exactly the same server) and thus ended require permission it didn't need to use.

      I wouldn't have a problem if the tool needed admin rights. But that the whole session needs to be from an admin grinds my gears.

  You can burn ISOs with Windows (no Third-party tools required (since Win7 or 10)) without admin rights. Just right click and select burn.

    I suspect the admin rights are to loopmount wim files... I don't think a non-admin can loopmount anything in Windows.
