Before you converting ISO file to bootable for Windows 11 or Windows 10 ISO, format your USB drive. You can do this by right-clicking the USB drive in File Explorer, choosing Format, and selecting either FAT32 or NTFS. Just make sure you back up any important data because formatting wipes it clean. Stick to trusted Microsoft tools. The Rufus program is super popular and reliable for this, but you can also use the Windows Media Creation Tool directly from Microsoft. It's user-friendly and handles the whole process for you if you want something quick and easy.
By the way, It is necessary to verify the integrity of your ISO file. If you downloaded it from Microsoft, it should be fine, but it doesn't hurt to check the SHA256 hash (provided on the download page) to make sure it's uncorrupted.
