Hey, user, I put Linux Mint on my laptop

wtf, i HATE linux and windows now!

1. Create empty GPT scheme on USB, e.g. by using fdisk
2. Create a single partition spanning the entire drive
3. Give this partition the type EFI System partition
4. Save the Layout.
5. Format the partition FAT32. `mkfs.vfat -F32`
6. Copy the files from the iso to this Partition.

Done. Works for Windows 8.1 and later.

What about 7

Honestly how do you expect Jow Forums to fucking react to your story? You legit have fucking downs if you can't install windows 10 on a computer.

You had multiple options
1. Use dd
2. Google for specific tools, install and use them (you will most likely find WoeUSB first)
3. Do wizardry with hex editor but that's not the best option.

Does dd actually work?
I've always had to run bootsect to get a Windows ISO bootable or use woeusb

did
Or just toggle the bootable flag in fdisk Jesus fuck

>muh usb
You could’ve burned a disc and been done in five minutes

It does but it will not create volumes so you won't be able to use free space in any way

>Download a GUI tool to make windows usbs
Guess what tool was that

woeusb

dd

Rufus is so god damn slow, but it's free and it works so I use it. The new GUI is a mess though.

I've used dd to create bootable Linux ISO drives before so I'm aware of that
This was a long time ago, but I saw mentions that it didn't work for Windows so I just ended up using woeUSB
I always have a Windows machine available now, so I just use a batch file that I made to create a bootable Windows drive. Don't fix what ain't broken, I guess

it's not our fault you're too dumb to use woeusb with gui

Learn to read

The easiest solution would have been to head over to tpb and download a win7 activated ISO and burn it to DVD, install on host machine and use integrated update tool to get win10.

Create an MBR parition table,
make an empty partition spanning the disk,
flag partition bootable,
copy files.

>Mount ISO
>Copy everything from ISO to the stick
You're retarded as fuck

use WoeUSB to make windows usb on linux. i don't know what they changed, dd unetbootin and others don't work anymore

With UEFI it's legit.
That's what you do when you dd recent distro iso's to sda/sdb whatever

I can relate to this. Use Etcher if you're still having issues, it worked for me.

I used woeUSB to install Windows 10 on a work machine and it turned out fine.

>not using dd
You might have a severe case of retardation.

use woeusb

I hate Jow Forums, its filled with a bunch of fucking extra chromie brainlets
>parted /dev/sdX
>mklabel msdos
>exit
>dd if=IMG.iso of=/dev/sdX status='progresss'
It takes one minuete OP, for the average Jow Forums more, but this is considered the professional and recognized method

su -c 'dd if=/path/to/image.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=8M status=progress oflag=direct'

assuming your USB is sdb, could be sdc, etc

>not using dd

Am I on Jow Forums now? This isn't the future I chose.

dd if=[iso file] of=/dev/sdX
where X is the number that corresponds to the the usb drive
pro tip: use df to find that out

or install gentoo

Smart phones killed Jow Forums it's like a endless summer now

hell, even etcher would've been a more acceptable solution than the retardation you've displayed

It seems he asked the wrong person. How did you manage to become this incompetent?

Why do you encourage a person to suicide? What the fuck is wrong with you?

Neck yourself.

Go. Leave this place.

Same, took quite some time and after testing out different programs, only that actually worked was woeusb.
Everything else fails for some reason.

I'm a computing retard, but I've been using linux since I was a teenager for every computing task I've ever needed. How do people have this many problems with linux? I always hear stories like this, but every problem I've had, I stumble my way through a solution, mostly browsing through forums. I don't get why so many people have problems.

MS require you use their own usb maker
microsoft.com/en-us/download/windows-usb-dvd-download-tool

Burn ISO
Boot ISO

but this is really God telling you to not install NSA/Windows.
