Publisher's Description

Rufus is a small utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc. It can be especially useful for cases where: you need to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.); you need to work on a system that doesn't have an OS installed; you need to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS; and you want to run a low-level utility.

The best! I've tried them all. I now only use this for making bootable Lixux USB drives.

Faster than the MS USB/DVD Tool
Works with all sorts of ISO distros.
Even makes a FreeDOS bootable USB.

Try it, it is better than others I've used.
