Hi,

Below command is not working for UFEI enabled computers to install Windows 10 

What are the commands used to create UFEI+NTFS bootable USB? So that I can copy the extracted contents of Windows 10 ISO and copy to the USB

Hi Boopathi,

The Using Media creation tool is probably the easiest way. We only need to download it and plug your USB flash drive. Then click next step.

If you want to use diskpart command to create. You need to assign a drive letter to the formatted partition. The final step is to copy all the files from the Windows install media to the USB device--for example, where d: is my ISO mount of Windows media and f: is my USB stick:

 xcopy d:\ f:\ /s /e

Some steps in the link for Windows 7 (the steps are also used with win10).

maybe I don't understand your question,
but why don't you use the media creation tool to create a bootable USB drive,
and then use this to install Windows?

btw.: your version of diskpart is really old. On build 1909 the version number is 10.0.18362.1
