Troubleshooting Windows 10 USB Installation Stuck at 'Copying Windows Files (0%)'

Troubleshooting Windows 10 USB Installation Stuck at 'Copying Windows Files (0%)' 🎯 💡 When a Windows 10 USB installation stalls at "Copying Windows Files (0%)", it often points to underlying hardware or media issues. First, ensure your USB installation drive is not faulty; try a different USB port or even re-create the bootable USB using a fresh Windows 10 ISO downloaded directly from Microsoft, employing a reliable tool like Rufus or the Media Creation Tool. Corrupt installation media is a common culprit. Next, investigate the target hardware. Faulty RAM is a significant cause; run MemTest86 for several passes to check for errors. The hard drive or SSD itself could be failing or have bad sectors; check its health using a diagnostic tool if possible, or try installing on a different drive. BIOS/UEFI settings can also interfere: ensure the SATA controller is set to AHCI mode, disable Secure Boot temporarily if enabled, and check boot order. Insufficient power supply or overheating during the process can also lead to freezes. Systematically troubleshoot these components to identify and resolve the bottleneck preventing file copying. 🎥 Watch more awesome videos here-    / @techpenguinn   🔗 Check out this video-    • Troubleshooting Windows 10 USB Installatio...   ✨ If you found this helpful, don’t forget to like 👍, share 💬, and subscribe 🔔 for more amazing content every day! #TechPenguin
