Hello, I have installed Manjaro on my brand new laptop, and I removed Windows as well. I am having trouble getting Manjaro working, so at the very least I need to reinstall Windows in order to do work. I have tried several methods for burning the Windows .iso file to a USB drive, but none of them have worked. I have checked the integrity of the .iso file and it checks out. I have to attend a webinar tomorrow and I would prefer to have Windows running by then.
This is where I got the iso file from:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10ISO
These are the 3 methods I tried:
