Installation Failed

An uncaught exception was raised:

Unable to create a USB flash device

Hi Sara, I will easily be able to help you solve this problem since it has been solved before; you need to run a software like a usb disk creatorwhich you can find by typing 'Startup disk creator' when you start the desktop program.

Ensure the bootable partitions are set as disks to use.

Make sure it is the format the windows can see. Restart your computer and ensure all the drivers are installed.

Try recreating the flash drive and it should work

 

I hope this solves your query

Thanks
