Description


balenaEtcher is a free software that allows you to write operating system images to SD cards and USB drives in a simple and secure manner. It provides a practical solution for creating bootable media, such as flash drives or cards for installing systems or using in devices like Raspberry Pi.

With an intuitive and modern interface, balenaEtcher simplifies the process in three basic steps: select the image (formats such as ISO, IMG, or ZIP are supported), choose the storage device, and click "Flash" to start the writing process. It includes automatic validation after the process, ensuring that the media is not corrupted and is ready for use, as well as protecting against errors by hiding main hard drives and highlighting only removable devices.
