How do I flash a Windows 10 / 11 USB on Linux?

 I want to go back to Windows (pls don't judge). How do I do that? Thank you in advance.

  • Hi, on Linux I would use WoeUSB-ng or another tool made specifically for creating Windows installer USB media. A generic image writer often does not work well with Windows ISOs because of file system and large file handling. If the tool offers NTFS or split-file handling, use that option, then boot from the USB through your firmware boot menu.
