As you know, we often create a bootable USB to install Windows, ghost Win, fix errors, recover data, etc. And after each time we create a bootable USB, we always wonder if the USB has been successfully created and if it can be used. Usually, we only know if the bootable USB has been successfully created or not when we use it. However, in this article, Mytour will guide you on how to check if a USB boot is working or not directly in the Windows environment. Please refer to it.
