The tagline for Rufus is. Now we’re all ready to copy the ISO file to the usb drive using the dd command. I’d recommend navigating to the directory where you downloaded the ISO.
Hello!This is not an uncommon issue as you can find other people on the internet struggling with the same issues you're currently having.Dolgwol a member of the Microsoft forums stated, 'I've had the same problem, then I deleted all the files inside the C:WindowsSoftwareDistributionDownload folder and run the setup again and it got past that error.' A site I used to use was REDACTED.com. While I never attempted to activate windows 10 with it, I can ensure you that it is a full copy of windows 10 and will most likely suite your needs.(Link to all versions of Windows 10)by Moderator/windows-10-home-pro-enterprise-64-bit-iso-feb-2017/I then used Rufus to create a bootable usb flash drive, and successfully install windows on a few of my PC's(Bootable Flash Drive Software)this was of some help!- Nate of Ralleon Custom Built.

As for the Universal USB Installer, I use that one on a daily basis. You put your iso in an easily accessible location, open Universal USB Installer, and under 'Select a Linux Distribution', scroll to the very bottom of that list until you see 'Non-Linux Distributions.' Under that should be Windows 7 InstallerStep 2, you just click on the 'Browse' button, and search for that iso you downloaded and placed in an easily accessible spot.As for your flash drive letter, it should automatically pick it up, but if you have multiple removable storage devices, you can find which one you need by going to My Computer (or This PC on Windows 10).After that, just click Create (should give you a pop up about formatting) and you're good to go.As for installing it, while keeping the USB drive in, restart your computer. While your motherboard / PC manufacturer's splash screen logo is on, press whatever key is needed to go to the boot menu. The keys vary with the motherboard or device. Mine happens to be F12, but it could be F10, F11, or any of the Function keys.When you get to the Boot Menu, click on the USB Drive or Removable Storage or whatever your BIOS may call your USB drive.
The Windows 7 Installer should then boot up. Oh, so you have to boot directly to the OS installation on the USB drive.What is the min-gb size USB drive that I need to buy for a 3-gb Win-OS-iso-img-file, is there a preferred brand, and how much should I not pay over.
Also, once the OS is installed on the USB drive it cannot be used to store anything else, right.Is this method easier and-or better than writing the Win 7 OS 3-gb iso-img-file to a bootable DVD.When I boot to the OS USB-drive should I choose repair or clean install.4GB USB or larger. No preferred brand.After you use it, you can wipe that USB and use it for other stuff.Clean install. After booting to the Win 7 OS that is copied to the USB-drive and reinstalling the Win 7 OS,will you then be able to bring the Win 7 OS onscreen at any time for whatever reason, ( as long as you can start the computer and get to the drives, ) from the USB-drive directly, without having to go through the boot sequence,just like when you go to 'drive D:' and it will 'play what's in the CD-DVD player-drive, such as a Win-OS repair disc.' No.What is on the USB is only the install files. After it is installed, you boot from whatever hard drive is in the system that you installed it on.(If I am reading this correctly).
So you can't later on after the Win OS is installed, with an already fully booted-up-started PC, go to the USB-drive directly, and bring the Win OS welcome screen on to the display screen. Just like with an already fully booted-up-started PC, when you go to drive D: CD-DVD-player-recorder and bring the Win OS welcome screen onscreen from the Win-OS DVD-disc.If you have the DVD or USB in, you can run the setup.exe on that drive.That will do one of two things:Start the install processorGive you the option to run a Repair or other troubleshooting.Is that what you're looking for?
