Trouble creating win10 install usb

theleg · 29 Jan 2020 at 22:42

Been tryin to get the media creation tool to make me a new usb install but it never gets past 0% and i cant seem to find out why.

My old usb seems to be corrupt but no reason it should be. Very confused.

Anyone any idea why the creation tool might get stuck at 0%

Right, created new usb install and having the same issue that led me to think my previous usb was corrupt.

Boots and asks whether i want to install 32 or 64 bit, goes through a loading files timer for a few seconds and then an error 0xc0000225 pops up with either winload.exe or winload.efi.

This is a new install on an entirely new ssd

Do you have another machine to create the usb from?

I think I could dig an old laptop out to try.
