Using Diskpart to create a bootable USB flash drive
Hi All,
Ive decided to use Diskpart to create a bootable USB flash drive instead of using the Media Creation Tool to create the Windows 10 media. Im just going to use the Media Creation Tool to download the iso image and diskpart to prepare the flash drive.
Are the following commands correct? In particular is it OK to put the Active command before the format fs=fat32 command?
You'll notice that Ive omitted "quick" from the format command. Is that the right way to do a Full Format?
I would prefer to perform a full format on the USB flash drive so that it checks for errors at the same time. I just want to know that performing a full format after the Active command wont interfere with the Active command in any way.
Ive also left out Assign. Am I correct in thinking that Assign isn't necessary because Windows will automatically give the flash drive the next available drive letter which is what I want to happen?
diskpart
list disk
select disk #
clean
convert mbr
create partition primary
select partition 1
active
format fs=fat32
exit
Many Thanks
