Rufus has stopped supporting Windows 7
Just to add a small correction here: it was. But Microsoft's strengthening of who could access their downloads in January this year means that it's become a major headache (i.e. time sink) to try to fix it so that it works on Windows 7. Which means that, no matter what version of Rufus you're using, and because this is actually a remote script that is being downloaded and executed by Rufus, ISO downloads have already been disabled on Windows 7 on account that if you run the script, it will just prompt you that it is not compatible with Windows 7 and exit.

Get W10 21h2 iso
The thing is that, even if https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download does not provide you with a link to access old Windows 10 ISOs, theses ISOs are still being provided by Microsoft if you know how to query its servers. And Rufus uses a 100% Open Source script (called Fido) to do just that.
- You can no longer download Windows 11, 10 ISOs via Rufus as Microsoft blocks Fido

I don't want to do anything wrong, need advice
If you want to know more, you can have a look at what the FIDO PowerShell script used by Rufus does, knowing that the SKUs we use in our script can be publicly obtained with something like https://github.com/luzeadev/techbench-json-dump.
You can actually validate that all Rufus is doing is access the Microsoft website for downloads by looking at the source of the PowerShell script that is being run to obtain the download links, which, just like Rufus, if a 100% Open Source project accessible from https://github.com/pbatard/Fido.

What's with the hate towards steam achievements?
I used to hate achievement hunting, it was a lot of hunt for 100 of X or other mundane "challenges". But lately there's been a lot of good ones lately, and been finding now that trying to "100%" I use that loosely because 100% a game and 100% achievements are not the same thing, is very rewarding. Pro tip though, steam achievement notifications are terrible, luckily the community developed Steam Achievement Notifier and I highly recommend it to give you that extra flair and QOL like automatic screen shots and what not.
