Rufus: Create bootable USB drives the easy way!!!
Rufus is a utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc.
It can be especially useful for cases where:
you need to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.)
you need to work on a system that doesn't have an OS installed
you need to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS
you want to run a low-level utility
Despite its small size, Rufus provides everything you need!
Oh, and Rufus is fast. For instance it's about twice as fast as UNetbootin, Universal USB Installer or Windows 7 USB download tool, on the creation of a Windows 7 USB installation drive from an ISO. It is also marginally faster on the creation of Linux bootable USB from ISOs.
A non exhaustive list of Rufus supported ISOs is also provided at the bottom of this page.
Changelog:
Version 2.3 (2015.08.28)
Detect ISOHybrid images and ask users how they should be written
Add MD5/SHA-1 image checksum verification (# button on the status bar)
Add Zip decompression support for DD Images
Add a cheat mode for ISO timestamp preservation (Alt -T)
Add a cheat mode for USB enumeration debugging (Alt- .)
Disable MS-DOS creation for Windows 10 or later (FreeDOS is still available)
Fix Windows To Go creation issues, and enable access to internal disks
Fix UEFI support for Fedora ISOs
Fix some USB enumeration issues
Other improvements and fixes, including translation updates
Speed comparison between Rufus and other applications:
The following tests carried out on a Windows 7 x64 Core 2 duo/4 GB RAM platform, with an USB 3.0 controller and a 16 GB USB 3.0 ADATA S102 flash drive.
