      Just in case you don’t already know, with an ISO or image file you don’t just copy the file onto the disk. It is a form of compressed file so you would normally have to use “burn an image” feature, which is available with most burner software. However, this freebie will do that as well as creating a bootable USB flash drive:

      As always with all downloads (from anywhere) watch out for goodies that you don’t want being pre-checked for you. A custom install, when available is a good bet.

      Some Rufus instructions:
