Over the past few years i have also realized rufus is the only thing making windows 11 installs easy or even possible. I had several devices i needed to get onto 11 and i remember 1 laptop i tried for days doing so many different things and it would just fail most of the way through and i couldnt figure out why. I then found rufus and saw that it allows some changes to get it working on some older devices andbit worked perfectly on the first try. Idk what MS is doing but they continue to screw up time after time.
