I'm looking to test out Windows, but I don't want to download it without my VPN. I'm trying to use it in a virtual machine with GPU passthrough so I can play all my games. I also obviously don't want to pay for a copy. TIA!

Just use quickemu, it will download the ISO and setup the VM for you in less than 10 minutes. If it doesn't download the ISO you can get it from M$'s website.

Also if you don't wanna pay and don't absolutely need windows just use any one of the many free Linux distros honestly.
