Windows 10: Is it possible to make a bootable macOS USB in a Windows 11 PC?

My kid's Macbook Air was crashed and unable to boot into Mac after software update. He asked me to make a bootable USB to reinstall macOS on his machine. However, I only have a Windows 11 PC at hand. Need help to solve the problem.

How to create windows 11 bootable usb installer on macOS monterey?

Thank for your suggestion, one more question, I was confused by the UEFI or MBR options , how can I choose it correctly?

I tried to select UEFI option to create a windows 11 bootable USB on macOS, it showed a message "burn successfully", and I can successfully boot it from my HP laptop and install a windows 11. and I tried MBR option too, it also works fine, so, what's the difference between this two options? can I choose any one?

 

Multi-bootable USB

Hey guys from TPU, couldn't find any specific thread pertaining to the question asked on title. As mentioned, I'm trying to create a bootable USB, but with many specifics boots available.

I've been trying to create one with multiple boot device including one that enables me to run Windows 10 directly on the USB Thumb Drive but to no avail.

The list of bootable images i'm trying to create are

1. Windows 10 (A full OS running from thumb drive)
2. Windows 10 ISO (Bootable disk image for fresh install)
3. MemTest86+

Have tried YUMI or UUI from the website USB PenDrive Linux but as this is my first time, i don't know how am i screwing up or am doing it right.. Anyone got a rough idea on a step by step guide? Thanks!

Hi Peter,

Don't worry. Creating a bootable USB on Mac is not as easy as Windows, which has dozens of free tools available such as rufus, media creation tool. I know thing becomes worse since Big Sur after Apple removed this feature from Boot Cam Assistant app.

Actually, I did the same thing a couple of weeks ago to help my son reinstall Windows 11 on his thinkpad laptop. I have an iMac at home running macOS Monterey 12.2.1 and spent a couple of hours to sort this thing out.

First, make sure download a legit copy of Windows 11 ISO from Microsoft website, not from other unverified sources.

Second, prepare for a USB flash drive with more than 8 GB storage.

Finally, download and install sysgeeker wonderiso app on your Mac and burn Windows 11 ISO to USB. This will make a bootable Windows 11 installation USB from the ISO. Here is a step-by-step tutorial for that:

P.S. don't waste time on those apps as it proves not working according to my test, including UNetbootin and Etcher.
