So does anyone know an easy way to do this?
Google gives me some answers that are all manual, including have to copy the data out of the ISO and onto the USB after it is properly prepared.

Man what a pain. On Windows I just use Rufus.

Fedora Media Writer only makes legacy boot versions.

I use the disks application in GNOME. Choose "Restore disk image" from the menu and choose the ISO.

I never even noticed the hamburger icon there before.

I tried to take a screenshot after clicking but the menu didn't show up, and I was too lazy to keep attempting.

With shutter, i have a 2 second delay on all my screenshots so I can get menus like that.

Someone mentioned another screenshot app like a month ago, I need to check it out.

That is a gif maker. I don't want that

What about this one?

I just use Fedora Media Writer (it's built in the Fedora Workstation version) to burn all ISOs... they are UEFI bootable, that's all I use anymore, and I even use Fedora Media Writer on Windows as well.

Have you tried Unebootin?
https://unetbootin.github.io/

That worked, but I have already uninstalled it

I usually used that also, but I made a 1803 USB this morning and it would not show up in the UEFI section of the Dell boot menu.

No idea why then. I use it to create bootable USB keys all the time, and I always have legacy BIOS disabled on all workstations and servers, leaving UEFI the only option. I haven't tried anything with 1803, though.

Ok. Did this, but the USB does not show up.

Looking back at Disks, I see why. It is UDF. UEFI requires FAT32 I do believe.

Compared to this one made with UNetbootin

@Tim_G I just used Fedora Media Writer to burn the Fedora 28 Workstatino NetInst ISO and that appears like it will work. Testing now.

Yup, worked. Shows in the UEFI section.

[FATeknollogee]

I've always used Fedora Media Writer for my UEFI USB boot sticks.

That is what I did this morning and had the problem that resulted in this post.

As you can see using the NetInst ISO for Fedora worked just fine.

But the Windows 10 1803 ISO does not.

[JaredBusch]

Still an issue today. I wanted to make a Windows 10 1903 USB stick and it wilil not boot after writing the USB with Fedora Media Writer.

Creating a Fedora 30 USB worked just fine.

[JaredBusch]

FYI This is what I have been using: WoeUSB.

Just thought I would try again.

[EddieJennings]

I just use ddafter getting rid of the partitions on the USB drive, but that's probably more manual than you want.

Edit (after reading the rest of the thread): I haven't used my method of dd with a Windows ISO. I'll try it if I get a chance to tonight and let you know how it goes.
