Even with limited knowledge of ISO files, you can easily turn your USB stick into a bootable drive in minutes. The software's UI is clean and simple to understand, but don't be fooled by looks. It integrates extremely well with multiple file systems and supports a wide range of Windows versions, going from Windows XP all the way up to Windows 10.
