Easy-to-use program with standard and advanced options to format USB drives and create boot disks quickly and with minimal effort.
Rufus is a lightweight application, designed to help you format and create bootable USB flash drives. For example, you can format and create USB keys / memory drives, memory sticks, etc.
- It can be especially useful for cases when:
- You need to create USB installation media from boot ISOs (Windows, Linux, etc.)
- You need to work on a system that does not have an operating system installed
- You need to start a BIOS or other firmware from DOS
- You want to run a low-level utility.
Despite its small size, Rufus offers everything you need.
Oh, and Rufus is fast. For example, it is almost twice as fast as UNetbootin, Universal USB Installer or the Windows 7 USB download tool, in the creation of a Windows 7 USB installer from an ISO. It is also slightly faster in the creation of Linux bootable USBs from ISOs.
