[QUOTE="Victor M, post: 1113797, member: 96560"] Hi Everyone, If you use a Linux program to place a Windows 11 installation ISO on it, it will not work. When you boot it up, it will say it is missing a media driver. Ubuntu's startup disk creator does not recognize the iso file. And fedora media writer flatpak recognizes the iso as an iso but produces a non-workable Windows setup stick as per above. If you have eliminated all Windows machines like I have, you have a journey to go through. 1. On your Ubuntu machine, use apt to install virt-manager. 2. Copy or download the Windows 11 ISO onto Ubuntu 3. Use virt-manager to install Windows 11 as a virtual machine 4. Use the virtual machine windows to download Rufus the USB stick writer 5. Copy or download the Windows 11 ISO onto the virtual machine windows 6. Use Rufus to write the Windows 11 ISO to the USB stick Now you will be able to boot your Windows installation USB and install normally. [/QUOTE]
