Creating a Windows Install USB without any software you can easily install windows 7 from USB without any software.

Creating a Windows Install USB without any software you can easily install windows 7 from USB without any software.

The first thing you need to do is open an elevated command prompt. 

Next we need to use the diskpart command line tool:

diskpart

Now we need to identify which disk is our USB, you can use the following command to find out:

list disk

once you have your disk number you will need to select it:

select disk 1

Now we need to wipe all the existing partitions off the drive, you can do this by using the clean command:

clean

Next we need to create a single primary partition on the USB:

create partition primary

Now give the new partition a file system:

format fs=fat32 quick

It is crucial to mark the partition as active, so that Windows knows which partition to boot from:

active

Finally we need to give our USB a drive letter so that we can copy the installation files to it. To do that we need to get a list of volumes on our machine:

list volume

You will easily be able to identify the correct volume by looking at the size column, once you have found it go ahead and select it:

select volume 3

Then assign it a drive letter that is not is use:

assign letter=F

Now open explorer and select all the files on your Windows DVD and send them to your USB.

That’s all there is to it. Of course in the real world we would use a utility to do this for us, but unfortunately thats not important..
