How to Download and Install Windows 11 from USB Flash Drive for FREE! 

Extra Tip: Don't connect your pc to the internet while installing the windows and that way you can skip signing into a microsoft account.

Building my first gamer pc in a bit with experienced buddy who has done before! Came here to make sure I’m at least prepared to put windows on after right! Thanks for speedy and nice video!

Followed your guide 5 years ago for the rx 50 and ryzen 5 build, and slowly upgraded that pc. And now I just finished building my new rig with a R7 7800x3d and a 4080 Super. Thanks for all the years of great build guides and hard work Joey!

Thanks for the vid! Now I have Windows 11, but what about the product key? I have a watermark at the bottom and it’s freaking me outtt lol

I have used this vid and your others to build three pc’s for my house and one for my parents. Thx Joey!!! Love the channel!!

I did a re-install of the Windows11 OS, but see the previous data in my personal folders still exists under the new setup, thought it will do a clean install where the old data is deleted. I see the data in other folders (e.g. Download, Documents, Misic, Pictures..etc, has been removed. Any suggestion?

Bro, my computer crashed one day and haven't seen anything as helpful as this Thankyou.

Most motherboards have a boot option on start up without going directly into the BIOS, usually F8 or F12 but will say on the initial splash screen.

Never seen a more simple and easy to follow through tutorial. Wow. Thanks

Did my own build but your videos definitely helped! Thx!!

What changes we have to make in bios except "xmp profile" and "re-sizeable bars" is there anything else I have to do?

Just don't forget that the USB Flash is formatted at default settings. Don't choose soemthing wrong when you are formatting the Flash drive, leave it to default. From my experience, I had issues while installing Windows 11, so keep an eye out on that

Appreciate the quick tutorial. Always look them up when building a new gaming rig every few years. Fantastic video! MSI Theme all the way with the 7800x3d Meg Ace, Meg s360 and Suprim X 4090.

Hope all RU-vidrs learn from this channel. Guys, this is how tutorials should look like. Thank you so, so much.

If I already have windows 10 and some of my stuff on my SSD but I don't want my stuff to be deleted but only have windows 10 deleted so it can be replace with windows 11 will it do that or no?

Building my first PC next week and am having a difficult time finding a copy of windows anywhere. Thanks for the tutorial!

When asked to delete a partition, you get a warning label that mentions there may be important data for the os on there. Have you run into any problems when doing that? Or always has been okay? Thanks!

I don’t understand why when I try to install it windows 11 the system says there’s no driver found.

thank you for this tutorial it was very helpful. for some reason though, at the point of choosing which drive to install on i have none even though i diffinitelly have an ssd drive. do you know why that would be? also could it be that my usb was formated because i cannot find any of my previous files!!!

I was wondering if i used an old ssd from a prebuilt would it boot fine? What do i have to do if it doesnt?

Joey being the most approachable, chill dude ever bless your heart

So easy to follow and so helpful def an amazing tutorial!!

W vid 🔥💯. Joey what mouse and keyboard you use on your other videos?

can i install windows and keep my files? i mean if i do that the boot problem will be solved too?

Thank you, very easy to follow!

Hey can you help me, I accidentally wiped by computer using rd C:\ /s /q and now I am stuck on blue screen, I tried to clean install windows 11 since Idc about personal files that were lost and when I try to install windows 11 it tells me that driver is missing and I'm what to do

Hey Joey👋 If i have 2 m.2 nvme ssd's, when i plug in the flash drive, will it go into the first slot which is the pcle 4 or it will it choose which ever to boot itself into randomly? P.S. first time builder

Almost done with gathering all my pc items. This got me hyped to see. I can’t wait to build it

Just to make sure if i buy the usb from your site it will be windows installed right? I am trying to get windows 10 and i was wondering if I could just plug the usb in right away without installing one myself.

Awesome vid! One thing though, did the MOBO you are using have TPM 2.0 enabled by default? I know with mine i will have to go into the BIOS and enable that before booting to the W11 flash drive.

do you need to reinstal every time you did it or will it be on the stick forever

Joey mad chill fr fr

Just had to replace my ssd. This video is 💯 legit! Easy to understand and easy to follow. Thank you alot brother!

If i didnt delete one of the primary types would I be able to keep some stuff or not?

So do I plug the usb into the pc right after I built it? Like first time powering on ever just plug it in? Or go through all the other stuff first

WORKED!! Ive been trying to figure this out for a while!

Thank you sooooooo much. You explained it nice and clear and I just saved myself from a computer fix trip. Thank you!

Key point. You need admin access to the computer from which you create the media. Huge point! Thanks Microsoft.

Are you guys gonna do a restock on the windows flash drive I don’t have a pc to download it so my set up has just been sitting for week :(

Easy, simple and straight to the point. This man is W

If I’m building a new pc do I NEED to install windows 11 or is windows 10 fine??

Been piling up parts for the last month and building my firsy pc tomorrow, thx for this tutorial so i can install windows 11 on the new rig!

Can you override windows 10 with 11? My gaming pc cannot be upgraded due to something in the BIOS. Want to make sure that I can override safely if possible

Keep up the great content man :)

Hey Joey, I've heard rumors about Windows 11 having lots of issues. I just need to ask if you recommend moving from Windows 10 to Windows 11? I still have the free Windows 10 that you gave me waay back and it works perfectly. Thank you again for all the help!

Quick question. I am building my PC right now, I only have a wireless keyboard and mouse, will this be a problem?

hi @CRATER can i do this on a macbook?

Finally I got windows from keyr (Make sure to include the dot (.) between "keyr" and "org") I like some of the transitions, but sometimes they're a bit too much and are seemingly random. Since we use these persistent elements that transition across pages to indicate some kind of relationship between the previous and the next states, some of your transitions confuse me because I can't immediately see what the relationship is. For example 2:23 of the selectable tiles (which weren't selected) transition into being two switches... does that mean anything? are they related in some way? I see this as random and a bad use of the design language. However, at 1:14 I like the transition from switches to the ticks on a paper, that makes sense to me. Epic presentation tho

I did your 1000$ AMD 5600 build but I used a msi 550 MB ,a 6800 Radeon, 2TB SD, I used my existing 32mb of ram, and my existing power supply and case. Can’t wait to try it out! You guys rock! Because I had so,e of the parts I only spent 900$

My download to a usb has been stuck at 93% since yesterday. Any fixes or helpful feedback?

i tried this and i keep going back to windows set up after installlation, i notice on the video once install was press its asking for product key but mine keep skipping that and i dont see it at all and i keep going back to windows set up again and again.

Your channel is mostly about pc build guides but would be nice if you reviewed gaming laptops every once in a while. Specially laptop gaming setups

Anybody else trying to fix black screen after bluescreen of death?

So my pc keeps loading into the bios and I only have an ssd with no other hard drives and I’m pretty sure it’s dead because it is not being recognized and I have no boot options, when I put my brothers ssd in it booted up perfectly fine, so does that mean I need a whole new ssd and if so can I even recorder my old ssd and put my stuff onto the new one

Hey so after you get your pc up and running how do you get it to start up again once it’s shut off? Do I have to redownload windows every time? It doesn’t go back to the log in screen and now I’m trying to download it again but it’s just stuck on the purple screen I’m so confused

Can't believe you changed the name 😒

Will i loose windows 11 on my laptop when i am downloading it on the USB flash drive

So what do you do with the already windows 11 USB flash drive

Thanks for making it clear, the other videos had me going in circles, yours fixed me up!! I have windows 11 now, thank again...

Thanks brother, second time I've used your PC build guides.

Reading help with something, for some reason the choice of media pop up doesn’t show up for me when I plug in my USB. Needing help ASAP

Will i still need a license key if i use this method? Going to be building my first gaming pc in a few days and was going to buy the product from amazon but a friend pointed me to this video and wasnt sure if it’d let me use windows for the majority of things i need without purchasing a license or if i’d still have to

Is it worth going for Windows 11 now for gaming or is Windows 10 pro better?

Great video. I have a new (2022) thin client ‘Dell Wyse 5070’. Can I install windows 11 on this thing? I want to remove the Enterprise office software and use it as a personal pc.

When I put the Windows 11 files on to the USB..do I keep it as an executable file?

I’ve just gotten windows onto my usb and done this but when I reboot it comes up with a black screen with a flashing underscore at the top right ?

i watched your video on the 650$ budget gaming pc and i just git it built today thatnk you so much crater for helping me get back into gaming :))

If you still check comments, how much is shipping on your website?

Thx buddy, you have giving me exactly the answers i needed !

it is a complete and well organize video man... bravo ..10 out of 10

This video helped me by wonders! You’re amazing my friend! I did run into an issue not addressed in this video. Where it kept going back to the main drive to boot from. There is a main command and a secondary list of commands of how to boot protocol in my specific MOBO. Just make sure to double check in your boot menu’s! 😂

Can you use that usb which u used for windows installlation normally after that? Like can u you clean that usb somehow or it is something that you cant change after you make it win installation device?

can you still install this win 11 pro to an old MSI H110 VD PRO with i3 6th gen only? thanks!

When installing it onto my new built PC that the Product key couldnt be found ........ trying to download windows 10 now see if that works etc

I deleted all the partitions except the main ssd, I think it deleted some of the software or maybe did it deleted OS stuff? The gigabyte control center was deleted too, is my pc going to be okay? Are those important, how do I recover it

Super informative video. Much appreciated.

Great video, I'm selling my gaming PC to a family member and downgrading from windows 11 pro to windows 11 home. Don't you wish there was an easier way from the Windows Update settings menu to do so.

Dude, you should be in the Hollywood. You'll do a very good side roles

Joey when are the windows 10 usb coming back in stock Ik in need of one

So is the “windows 11 installation media” windows 11 pro? Or windows 11 home?

So, does this work even if you have a password (which is unknown) to the old pc where you wanna download windows onto?

Thanks bro You are so simple this is the best tutorial.

I got a windows 11 product key and a normal clear 8gb stick, now i just download windows 11 on the stick right?

Once I install windows 11 for the first time on my new pc will I then get the option to connect my pc to the WiFi in my house ??? Because I just built this PC

Is this the same for windows 10? I heard it runs better for games

This was very helpful, thank you so much!

I appreciate your help here ... I tried to download the software ... but I didn't know which one there are three different links and I cannot download it to my flashdrive it goes to the downloaded folder ... So even when I do a restart and try to install it it does not boot up from the Flashdrive and when I am in the Boot Manager there is only the boot manager with no options to select. I have never seen this before. I really need Help ..

so that's one way to force install windows 11,am i going to have any problem with updates and stuff?because i have a b350 motherboard and basically my system doesn't meet the requirements for windows 11.

Just got new Rig, but I wanna replace the SSD with a new one. Just to confirm, do I download Windows onto the USB and then just simply turn off Pc and insert the USB and it will automatically boot to the new SSD? Then bam it’s done?

Idk why I could not see the driver storage tab in the list after enter my laptop's serial number

I’m doing a clean Windows 11 install on my Dell Laptop. Do I need to format the flash drive to NTFS before I download the file on there? Also, what option from the Windows 11 will boot and install on my laptop?

do you have to activate windows after installation or it recognises that you bought it on your old pc before the transfer?

can somebody help? when i choose a version it says my pc cant run windows 11 but i have normal pc.. i dont understand what requirement i need

i do not know why but i can not choose the option where it tells me which media i want to use.

So the usb in your description already has windows 11 on it

my TV keeps losing connection to my pc at about 60% downloading the software onto the USB

New to all this. Once you have windows on the USB and use it. Will there still be a copy on the USB drive to use again in the future?

After I change the boot menu lineup and restart, it give me an option to upgrade or do a clean installation, the upgrade just takes me back to windows 10, plz help

Do i need to purchase a license or anything?

Yooo thanks man. It's like you are god sent. I needed to do this Today😅😂😂😂
