If you ever wondered how to boot from an NTFS partition in order to install a Windows ISO, Rufus is the answer. It can be especially useful for cases where you need to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.), to work on a system that doesn’t have an OS installed, to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS or when you need to run a low-level utility.

Rufus is a boot USB maker utility, that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pen drives, memory sticks, etc.
