Make an antiX/MX Live USB from Windows (Rufus Method)

Abstract: This video is about creating an antiX Live USB device from within MS Windows, using the Rufus method.
Downlod and Install Rufus on Windows – Runing Rufus and Preparing the USB Creation – Write to the Stick – Release the Stick Before Unplugging to Aavoid Damaging the File System
Please consider the Rufus method as not reliable: The resulting USB devices have proven to fail with antiX in many aspects, in particular concerning the advanced Live functionality Remaster, Live Kernel Updater, Persistence options, and even initial booting the USB stick may fail. If experiencing issues with the Rufus created stick, instead consider using the native antiX USB Maker tool, which has been packaged by MX into an appimage so you can run it even from within MS Windows using their native WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) terminal provided by Windows as part of this OS. Make sure to tick the fully featured mode in the antiX Live USB Maker.
