A few years ago, we were using CD / DVDs to install Windows, which was not very practical. Now everything is much simpler and, above all, faster with the USB Drive. So, do you want to create your Windows 11 bootable USB drive using Microsoft’s Windows 11 media creation tool? The tool will download the installation files of the latest version of Windows 11 and will copy the files to the USB drive.
