UUBYTE ISO EDITOR TRIAL WINDOWS 10
The task: make a Windows 10 installer USB for a new PC, when I only have a Mac (running macOS Catalina).
UUBYTE ISO EDITOR TRIAL PC
This is definitely a roundabout way and takes a bit of time (up to 2 hours to download the ISO, installing Windows on Mac using Boot Camp, Windows 10 Media Creation, and Windows 10 PC install) but it works.Īfter going through all the above headaches, and the sledgehammer-nut issues and the worry of security risks, I found a straightforward solution adapted from a post by "cerberus" on this forum/thread.
UUBYTE ISO EDITOR TRIAL INSTALL
Simply go through the process of installing Windows, go to the Microsoft Windows 10 page on your Windows partition and follow the instructions for creating a bootable flash drive (using the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool), and then use that USB to complete the Windows 10 install on your PC. I tried multiple solutions (deleting partitions, copying the install files to a new partition, lots of diskpart work, etc.) to no avail.Īs a backup solution (and what worked for me): you can always create a working USB by installing Windows onto your mac using the Boot Camp Assistant tool referencing the same iso downloaded from Microsoft. Booting up the windows installer from the USB was successful, but at the end of the installation I hit the "Windows could not prepare the computer to boot into the next phase of installation" error. This process did not work for me for whatever reason.
