Install/ Boot Windows from USB Pen Drive/ Thumb, Flash Drive in easy steps

Normally, Windows is installed using optical media like DVDs and CD's but there are times when it is not possible to boot into the windows setup using disks probably because your DVD drive is not
working or not installed working or, if you are using one of those ultra-portable laptops, it is not there at all.
But, to overcome this problem, one can either use external disks and install windows normally or create a bootable pen drive (flash drive) to install Windows on the go


Steps to create a Bootable USB Flash Drive/ Pen Drive

<<1>>Download Win to Flash. The software is still in beta phase so it is possible that it has some bugs although I have personally faced none. The latest version of Win to Flash can be downloaded from here.
<<2>>To avoid this tutorial from getting outdated, I would advise to download the software from the former link.
<<3>>Extract the downloaded zip file to any folder on your desktop.
Open the folder and run WintoFlash.exe by double clicking on it.
<<4>>Click Next, check I accept EULA, click Next and Next again. Wait for the software to load some ads, click Next and Next again.
A welcome screen like one in the image below will show up.


<<5>> NOW Click on the big green tick. The welcome screen will turn translucent and WinToFlash wizard will open.


OK NOW WE MOVE ON TO NEXT
<<6>>Click Next. On Windows File path entry, click Select button and select the location of your Windows disk, or the folder containing the Windows setup files and click OK.
<<7>>On USB Drive path entry, select your USB flash drive's location and click OK.
<<8>>Click Next button. In the dialog box, encircle I accepted the license agreement and click Continue.
<<9>>A warning message will be displayed saying that Formatting will erase all data on the disk. <<10>>Click OK in the message.
WintoFlash will show a Windows with a progress bar like one in the image below.


<<11>>After the progress bar reaches the end, press Next and then press Exit. A notification to update WintoFlash might be shown, click No just close to close it.
ENJOY THE TRICK
