Prophecies must be a thing.

Had to deal with Windows today and my luck was that not 2 but 3 USB sticks that should hold the ISO (boot image) had issues (copied also on different machines, different programs to transfer the data used).
As the checksum of the download was verified, it must happened during the copy process.

What a pain, especially when your daughter is pushing to get her gaming PC set up.

Windows, maybe the whole of Microsoft, hates me 🤓🤪
