Hi, you can create a Windows 11 bootable USB from a Mac even though Boot Camp Assistant is no longer available. One method is to use Disk Utility to format your USB drive as exFAT, then copy the Windows 11 ISO contents onto it. Another option is to use the Terminal app with the dd command, but that requires care because selecting the wrong disk could erase data. After preparing the USB, you can insert it into your PC, change the boot order in BIOS, and start the clean installation of Windows 11. If you are not comfortable with Terminal, the safest approach is to borrow a Windows PC temporarily and use Microsoft’s Media Creation Tool, which is the official method.
