In this video, I show how to properly convert an ISO file into a bootable USB drive. Simply copying an ISO file to a USB does not work, and this video explains why, then walks through the correct process using a reliable bootable USB creation tool.

You’ll learn what makes a USB drive bootable, how ISO images actually work, and what happens behind the scenes when a bootable USB is created. This method works for Windows ISO files, Linux distributions, recovery tools, and installer images.

The tutorial is beginner-friendly but technically accurate, so you understand what’s happening instead of blindly clicking options. This is useful if you’re installing Windows, testing Linux, fixing a broken system, or creating a recovery drive.

The process shown is safe, fast, and widely compatible with modern UEFI and legacy BIOS systems.

This guide is ideal for:
• Installing Windows or Linux
• Repairing a non-booting PC
• Creating a recovery USB
• Learning how bootable media actually works
