I have trouble with viewing USB in BIOS. I wanna install Windows 10 on my laptop and of course to do it i need to run from USB, but BIOS doesn't see it! Another laptop Asus can see USB and even USB with no written OS on it. So the thing isn't in USB.

Before I've installed Linux Mint instead Windows 10, and then BIOS saw USB and everything was good. There's no Legacy boot in BIOS as well.

Maybe I have to update BIOS somehow, or something else?

    Using what image? Official Windows ISO images aren't USB disk images. Apr 26, 2022 at 17:41

    The standard USB image writer can't be used for the current Microsoft ISOs. Preferably do it from a Windows computer using the official Media Creation tool that's triggered by the ISO download (Windows only). In Linux you may use MKUSB but not the typical tools that exclusively depend on DD. Apr 26, 2022 at 17:45

    (1) No, not necessarily and typically it doesn't show up when not recognized as a bootable device. (2) Done as it was it may be recognizable for BIOS/Legacy boot mode but certainly not in the proper UEFI mode. (3) It goes without saying that you want UEFI mode. Apr 26, 2022 at 18:02

Re-create your Windows 10 USB Stick using Rufus

Rufus automatically identifies Windows 10 ISO installations and will format and write to the USB stick in the correct way. It also offers the option to change from GPT to MBR if your machine is very old.
