🛠️Create Installation Medium

Let's put Windows install media on your USB!

For Valorant & League of Legends

For any other game, please ignore!

1. For League of Legends, use Windows 10

2. For Valorant, use Windows 11 (unless you have a new TPM chip)

YOU MUST DO A FRESH INSTALL FROM USB

In order to remove all potential traces, you must reinstall Windows directly from a USB rather than doing a cloud install or a wipe via Windows.
