Rufus is a free software program developed by Pete Batard. It is used to format and create bootable USB flash drives, from which you can directly start a system that doesn’t have an OS installed.
It is a very small, light, helpful, and easy-to-use tool. If you need to start your computer in DOS for whatever reason, Rufus is one of the best ways. It provides everything you need to work on a bare system, e.g. run a low-level utility, flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS.
