This video outlines the process of installing Windows 11 version 25H2 using Rufus 4.15. It involves downloading the official Windows 11 ISO, using Rufus to create a bootable USB drive, and then installing Windows 11 from start to finish.
Begin by ensuring a stable internet connection. Open a web browser, search for 'Windows 11 download', and navigate to the official Microsoft download page. Select Windows 11 multi-edition ISO for 64-bit devices, choose your preferred language, confirm, and click the 64-bit download link to get the Windows 11 ISO. This download might take some time.
After downloading the Windows 11 ISO, open a new browser tab, search for 'Rufus', and go to its official website. Scroll down to the latest releases section and download the latest version of Rufus (e.g., rufus-4.15.exe).
Connect your USB flash drive to your computer, ensuring you back up any important data as the drive will be formatted. Launch Rufus by double-clicking the executable. Rufus should automatically detect your USB drive. If not, select it manually. Under 'Boot selection,' click 'Select' and choose the previously downloaded Windows 11 25H2 ISO. You can set a volume label or leave the default. Click 'Start.' A customization window may appear; you can leave default settings or adjust them, then click 'OK.' Confirm the data erasure warning to begin the process. The bootable USB creation will take several minutes; do not disconnect the drive until it shows 'Ready'.
Once the bootable USB is ready, connect it to the target computer. Turn on or restart the computer and repeatedly press the boot menu key (e.g., F12, Esc, Del, F2, F8) to enter the boot menu. Select your USB flash drive and press Enter. The computer will now boot into the Windows 11 installer. Follow the on-screen prompts to select your language, keyboard layout, storage drive, and installation preferences. Windows 11 25H2 will be installed and ready for use.
