BAM done :smile9: works with any iso including linux isos that need there own bootloaders. It's my goto tool

If so, open rufus, select your drive Click the little icon seen here: click start. I haven't created a bootable USB using the command line since you had to way back in the Windows XP days. I did run through a tutorial just to make sure it worked if you still want to do it that way: Bootable usb pendrive using cmd - Bootable USB | Bootable USB

Collins Co, (FoCo) Feb 6, 2015 #6 ya when i opened rufus and clicked it the first time it went to ubuntu iso file not windows and now ii deleted ubuntu until i get this figured out. but when i click on it now it goes to the empty folder where ubuntu was and there is no other file there. and i dont have a clue if the windows iso even exists at this point on my computer. I ran search for ISO(*iso) and nothing came up in results.?
