How do I create installation media for Windows Server 2022?

Once you've downloaded the installation file (Windows Server 2022 .iso), create a bootable USB drive (pendrive) to perform the installation.

Note: You'll need a USB device with a minimum memory of 16GB.

The application you can use for this process is:

Rufus

  1. Download it for free here.
  2. Scroll down and download the most up-to-date version of Rufus in the Download section.
  3. Connect the USB and then open the Rufus programme.
  4. Click on Select and find the Windows Server 2022 .iso file you want to set up.
  5. Finally, click on Start and wait for the programme to create the bootable USB drive.
    6. Note: It will show a popup window called Customize Windows Installation, select option 3 Disable Data Collection and wait for the programme to create the bootable USB drive.
  6. Once the setup is complete (Prepared progress bar), click on Close and you'll be ready to install Windows Server 2022.
