# USB Media Creator

## **Create a Bootable USB of your Image**

The USB Media Creator allows administrators to create a bootable USB drive based on the Deployment Packages you have created in the OS Deployment section. \
\
This gives you the option to image a computer using a bootable USB containing your captured image or an image that has been added using an ISO and has the OS Install Settings you defined tied to it.

\
To create a bootable USB, follow the steps below:

1.Open the Deploy Imaging Server (DIS) interface and click on **USB Media Creator**.
