What makes a disc bootable?
A disc is considered bootable when it can be used to start up a computer. This can be a disc containing an operating system (OS), such as Windows or macOS, or a disc containing utilities or other software.
There are a few things that are necessary for a disc to be bootable. First, the disc must be formatted in a format that the computer can understand. For example, a Windows computer can only boot from a disc that is formatted as NTFS. Second, the computer must be able to find the bootloader on the disc. The bootloader is a small program that loads the OS or other software. Finally, the computer must be configured to boot from the disc. This can usually be done in the BIOS or UEFI.
If a disc does not meet all of these requirements, it will not be bootable. For example, a disc that is formatted as FAT32 will not be bootable on a Windows computer, because Windows requires a NTFS formatted disc. Similarly, a disc that does not contain a bootloader will not be bootable.

Next, click on the “Browse” button and select the ISO file you downloaded earlier.
Finally, click on the “Start” button and wait for Rufus to create the bootable USB drive.
Once the USB drive is ready, you can insert it into your computer and restart your computer.
