Windows 10: Making a Copy of a Microsoft Windows 10-Pro CD to a USB Stick and Use it to Replace Windows...

I have read "Ask a Question" on Microsoft, the problem that many Windows 11 Users have, is the inability to downgrade from Windows 11 to Windows 10 after using it for more than 10-days without losing data. I have been using my PC for several years using Windows 10-Pro which I like very much. Yet, what I didn't care for is my older computer didn't have enough USB Ports for what I needed to get the job done. Our local computer store here in the Philippines suggested that I would have to purchase a new computer with more USB Ports.Earlier last year, we purchased a new computer with numerous

Windows 10 USB boot

Hi there, am not a windows 10 expert. I have a pc in the bedroom on windows 10, I messed up the bootloader trying to fix the xp on that system.

System wont boot, trying to repair via win 10 usb installer.

Downloaded the media creation tool to install windows 10 installer on usb stick. Not compatible with a host of usb sticks I have. Tried the usb sticks that others use, but I think they use rufus; as the media creation tool by win 10 does not detect the usb stick.

So quick question, the win10 machine i am trying to repair the bootloader is a win7 upgraded to win10.
If i were to use the usb win10 installer to "repair installation" does the version of the iso downloaded via the media creation tool matter?

There is three options:
Windows 10
Windows 10 Home
Windows 10 N

Also is there a step by step instead of using rufus as I want to try an alternative method of creating a usb win 10 installer. Preferably with more compatibility.

System is a asus sabertooth 990 (r2?) with AMD phenom X 6.

Also is there any other software I can load onto the usb that can repair the bootloader easily?
That would be the ideal alternative. Thanks

 

making copies of CD in windows 10

Hi Ahamed,

When you copy music, pictures, and videos from your PC to a blank CD or DVD, it's called "burning." When you copy music, pictures, and videos from a CD or DVD to your PC, it's called "ripping." You can use Windows Media Player to do both. May we know what
type of file are you copying?

If in any case you need to make multiple copies of a CD, there are downloadable 3rd party applications that can perform such operation with ease.

To copy a CD with only one DVD drive, kindly follow these steps:

• Insert the CD you want to copy into the DVD drive.
• Create a location folder and copy the contents of the CD to the folder.
• Remove the CD from the DVD drive.
• Insert the blank CD, and then burn the contents of the folder into the new CD.
  

For additional information, see
Burn and rip CD's.

Note: Steps provided in the above article may also apply in Windows 10.
