Create Linux bootable USB drive on Windows 11 for clean install

The Linux bootable USB might be not working after creation. You should know how to fix it. 

Wrong tools or settings: During the process of creating a boot disc, if you use inappropriate tools or incorrect settings, the boot disc may not work properly. For example, if you use an incompatible version of burning software, choose the wrong writing mode, or use some tools without correctly configuring the partition scheme, file system and other parameters. or when using certain tools (e.g. Rufus, UltraISO, etc.), the partition scheme, file system and other parameters are not configured correctly.

Corrupted or incomplete ISO file: If the downloaded Linux image file itself is corrupted or incomplete due to interruptions during the download process, the created boot disc will definitely not work properly. This may be due to unstable network, download source problem or storage device failure.

USB Flash Drive Quality Problems: The USB flash drive used may have quality problems itself, such as damaged memory chips, faulty main control chip, etc.. These problems may result in data not being written or read correctly, thus rendering the boot disc ineffective. You can try to replace a new USB flash drive to recreate the boot disc.

Incorrect boot sequence: The boot sequence may not be configured correctly in the computer's BIOS/UEFI settings. If other devices such as hard drives, optical drives, etc. are listed before the USB stick, the computer may prioritise booting from these devices and ignore the Linux system on the USB stick. You need to enter the BIOS/UEFI setup interface and set the USB stick as the first boot item.

Secure Mode Restriction: Some computers have the BIOS/UEFI set to Secure Boot mode (Secure Boot), which may prevent unauthorized operating systems from booting. If you encounter this situation, you need to temporarily disable the Secure Boot feature in the BIOS/UEFI setup, and then try to boot the Linux system from the USB stick again.

Please use the right tool to make Linux bootable USB on Windows PC as some of them are not working for the latest Linux ISO.
