Installing Windows 10 generally requires a removable rig to be configured to be a bootable media.
The best unit to use for this is a USB memory stick.
Tip: This process requires a USB memory stick with at least 8GB of space.
The best software to use to create a bootable Windows USB is the official MicrosoftMedia Creation Tool.
This tool can run without any installation, you just need to accept the standard licensing agreements.
The first real option is selecting which process you want to complete.
The Media Creation Tool can be used to upgrade existing installations of Windows or to make bootable removable devices.
You want to select Create installation media, before clicking next.
The recommended options for this PC will match the version of Windows that you have installed.
The architecture should be set to 64-bit unless you know you specifically need a 32-bit version of Windows.
Select Windows language pack, edition and architecture options.
Select USB flash drive and click next.
The next stage is to select which USB drive to use.
If the equipment you select does not have the required 8GB of space, a warning will popup.
Select which USB unit to install Windows to.
Once the process is complete, youll get a screen saying, Your USB flash drive is ready.
The process is complete.
Once you click Finish the Media Creation Tool will perform a few cleanup tasks before closing.
