Rufus is a Windows application that allows you to create a variety of bootable devices from external drives such as USB pen drives and SD cards. It is free to download and it takes a few seconds to download it. Once rufus is downloaded, you can follow the steps below to create a bootable USB drive.
- Insert your flash drive into your computer. Note that the size of the flash drive you are to use should be much higher than the size of the ISO file you are using.
- Launch the Rufus application
- By default, the device section is going to pick your flash drive. Should you have more than one drive, then you go ahead and select the drive you want to create the bootable on.
- At the Boot selection, that is where you will select the ISO file to be used for the Bootable.
- At the partition scheme, you are going to select your Drive’s partition scheme, this could be a GPT or an MBR.
- Once everything is selected, you should see the READY button, which indicates that you are ready to start copying your files, so go ahead and click on ready.
- Now you wait for all the files to be copied and your Bootable drive is ready!
