1: If you want Windows 10, use your tool
If you want to install Windows 10 with a USB on your PC or on another computer, just have to download the Microsoft tool for installing the new operating system. Remember to save everything you have into the USB in another location, because you will lose all data in the process.
After downloading the tool with the link above it is recommended to run the program as administrator (right click -> Run as administrator, instead of double-clicking), after which we will show two options. The second one is what interests us, indicating "creates installation media for another PC."

Connect the USB memory you want to use any available port, and the next step you can choose which version of Windows 10 you want. If you are wondering, the 32-bit version is for equipment with less than 4 GB of RAM, and 64 bits for those with 4 GB of RAM or more.
Below is the ability to select "USB flash drive", and can choose from a list of devices which one you want to use to install Windows 10 on a USB later. If you had a problem because you do not recognize your USB, returns to the previous step and instead choose ISO file.
If the USB recognized you simply wait until the process is complete, and if not, when you have downloaded the ISO file of Windows 10 continues to read in the following section.
2: For other operating systems, use Rufus
Rufus is a tool that will allow us to create bootable USB easily, that is, thanks to Rufus create everything needed to allow our PC instead of starting from the hard disk with the system installed, do so from the software we have insert chosen our portable memory.
Only we have to download the application from its official website, making it possible to choose between the version installed or portable version that does not require this process. Just after starting Rufus ask us about updates online, and if we give permission to look for on your own.
Even if you have not introduced the USB into an available port on your PC before starting the application, if you do it once open automatically recognized and available for use. It should not be the case you should try another USB port directly try with another USB or memory, install the operating system on a memory card.
When you have everything ready you must select what your USB drive in the list of devices we see at the top of Rufus. Make sure this is the drive you want to use to create a bootable USB Linux or other operating systems, because if you had another connected selection and lose all your data by mistake.
A part of the selection of the device, unless you know what you're doing and you want to customize other options, should go directly to the text field where it says "New Label". You can specify a name for the USB, which will be displayed when you connect it to another computer for easy recognition.
In the formatting options, keep the boxes as you can see in the picture, ie, the first has to be unchecked and the other three active options. You just have to select the location of the file containing the operating system you want to use to create your boot disk.
Problems with Windows 10? You should check your installation
To do this, the third option, which indicates "create boot disk with" click directly on the box on the right with a drive and a floppy drive. Here you will have to choose the ISO image file or other supported format, which you should have previously downloaded, such as that gives us the tool of Windows 10 that we saw earlier.
When the process is complete and you will list your USB memory boot Linux or OS you have chosen, also known as bootable USB, you can use it to repair other equipment or make formatting without CDs.
