Warning: selecting the wrong drive and then proceeding to the next step will result in all the data on the drive being deleted.

• Click Flash to write the Raspberry Pi Desktop image to your USB drive.

Etcher will show the message Starting, and then it will show the Flashing progress.





When the process is complete, you will see the message Flash Complete.
