The interface is simple and intuitive, supports drag-and-drop operation, and automatically checks the integrity of the image.

Step 1: Download the ISO of Windows 11 version 24H2 from Microsoft official website.

Step 2: It is recommended to use a 32GB+ USB flash drive (FAT32 format), we recommend Samsung T7, SanDisk Extreme Pro and other high-speed devices. Backup your data after inserting the USB (the USB flash drive will be emptied).

Step 3: Open Etchher and select the Windows 11 ISO file and the USB flash drive to write to.

Step 1:  Configure the write parameters. Select GPT (UEFI) or MBR (Legacy BIOS), depending on the motherboard mode. Force the selection to FAT32 (some older motherboards have better compatibility).

Step 4: Click “Flash!” and wait for the progress bar to finish (about 10-20 minutes). Eject the USB flash drive securely when writing is complete.

Etchher is a lightweight Windows 11 USB installer creation tool for quickly making non-encrypted Windows 11 boot disks (e.g. 23H2 and below). However, for 24H2 encrypted ISOs, additional decryption steps are required
