2 Ways to Make a Bootable Flashdisk Windows 7 / 8 / 10 (+Pictures)

Whatever you do with the computer in front of you right now, it’s still the same. All computers or laptops can only be used if the operating system has been embedded in it. Whether it’s Microsoft’s operating system with Windows or Linux with various kernels.

Even though no matter how much the developers claim that the operating system is free of viruses or cybercrimes, it still doesn’t stop the damage from getting to the computer. Some of them are even fatal and must be formatted or reinstalled.

During the reinstallation process, we certainly need the operating system installer file to be installed. In the past we had to still use the CD / DVD to accommodate the installer file. However, due to the limited size or size of the CD/DVD, we often need more than one CD/DVD chip. But along with the passage of time, more and more innovations in the field of information technology.

We already know the storage media called flash. In addition to being more flexible and unquestionable in terms of portability, the size limit of a USB flash drive is also much larger than that of a CD/DVD. That’s why it will be much easier if you can reinstall the computer armed with a USB Flashdisk.

2 Ways to Make a Bootable Flashdisk

To re-install using a USB Flashdisk, you must configure so that your Flashdisk can become a bootable USB and become an installer media. There are many applications that can be used to create a Bootable USB.

We will provide two sample applications that you can use to create a bootable USB. Previously, please provide a USB Flashdisk with a minimum size of 4-8 GB and also the ISO file of the operating system installer to be installed.

1. Create a Bootable USB with Rufus

1. First of all, please download or download and install Rufus app in the computer.

2. After installing, Rufus will automatically run itself and this is the main page that will appear. Rufus will also automatically detect the USB Flashdisk that you have plugged into the computer port. Please click the disk icon or symbol as shown in the image below.
