Dell XPS 15 9570 - Factory Image File Download Location please.

I need the Dell Factory Image File Download Location for my laptop. I no longer have the recovery partition to factory restore from within my laptop after I upgraded to Windows 10 Pro and reformatted everything. Once I've downloaded it, I know I'll have trouble running it. If I want to do it from a DVD using an external DVD drive, how do I set up my BIOS so that it recognises the drive and doesn't tell me it can't locate any drive on my laptop. Thank you very much.

This is the download to use:

Which answers my question. I just had to make sure that my USB stick was the first boot by going into F2 at bootup. Thank you for your suggestions.

You should use a Bootable USB and not DVDs. Follow my instructions here to Download Windows 10, make a Bootable USB, Clean Install and then use Dell Update to install your system drivers;

I am now using a USB which I created. However, I still don't get all the apps in the factory image such as the anti-virus software, Netflix and all the other programs. It's only Windows 10 Home plus a couple of Dell things.
