Media Creation Tool For Mac ?
It’s possible to download the Windows 10 ISO file without the Media Creation Tool to upgrade or clean install of the latest version of the OS, but Microsoft hides the option for Windows 10 users. The first and most obvious choice for creating Windows 10 installation media is the Windows Media Creation Tool. This application allows you to get the Home or Pro versions of Windows 10, and you can pick from the 32-bit or 64-bit version What Is the Difference Between 32-bit & 64-bit Windows? Use the Media Creation Tool to download and save the.iso. Do not use it to make the USB. This saves you wasting time downloading Windows 8.1 and then having to redownload as the tool made the USB incorrectly. As there are those who may want to clean install Windows 10 Version 1709 on their devices as opposed to updating through Windows Update, has Microsoft updated the MCT for such people, or has an. But you’ll need to create a bootable Windows 10 USB drive first. The process is a little more complicated if you’re using a Mac. Microsoft offers a simple tool to create a bootable USB on Windows, but there is no such tool for Mac users. HighC for Mac OS X v.2.86 HighC is a graphical music creation tool. It is a synthesizer, a sequencer and a mixer. It is a synthesizer, a sequencer and a mixer. Its goal is to make music composition as simple and direct as sketching.
These advanced steps are primarily for system administrators and others who are familiar with the command line. You don't need a bootable installer to install macOS, but it can be useful when you want to install macOS on multiple computers without downloading the installer each time.
Download macOS
Windows Media Creation Tool For Mac
- Download a macOS installer, such as macOS Mojave or macOS High Sierra.
To download macOS Mojave or High Sierra for this purpose, download from a Mac that is using macOS Sierra 10.12.5 or later, or El Capitan 10.11.6. Enterprise administrators, please download from Apple, not a locally hosted software-update server. - When the macOS installer opens, quit it without continuing installation.
- Find the installer in your Applications folder as a single ”Install” file, such as Install macOS Mojave.
Use the 'createinstallmedia' command in Terminal
- After downloading the installer, connect the USB flash drive or other volume you're using for the bootable installer. Make sure that it has at least 12GB of available storage and is formatted as Mac OS Extended.
- Open Terminal, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder.
- Type or paste one of the following commands in Terminal. These assume that the installer is still in your Applications folder, and MyVolume is the name of the USB flash drive or other volume you're using. If it has a different name, replace
MyVolume
accordingly.
Mojave:*
High Sierra:*
Sierra:
El Capitan: - Press Return after typing the command.
- When prompted, type your administrator password and press Return again. Terminal doesn't show any characters as you type your password.
- When prompted, type
Y
to confirm that you want to erase the volume, then press Return. Terminal shows the progress as the bootable installer is created. - When Terminal says that it's done, the volume will have the same name as the installer you downloaded, such as Install macOS Mojave. You can now quit Terminal and eject the volume.
* If your Mac is using macOS Sierra or earlier, include the --applicationpath
argument. The Sierra and El Capitan commands show the proper format of this argument.
Use the bootable installer
After creating the bootable installer, follow these steps to use it.
- Connect the bootable installer to a compatible Mac.
- Use Startup Manager or Startup Disk preferences to select the bootable installer as the startup disk, then start up from it. Your Mac will start up to macOS Recovery.
Learn about selecting a startup disk, including what to do if your Mac doesn't start up from it. - Choose your language, if prompted.
- A bootable installer doesn't download macOS from the Internet, but it does require the Internet to get information specific to your Mac model, such as firmware updates. If you need to connect to a Wi-Fi network, use the Wi-Fi menu in the menu bar.
- Select Install macOS (or Install OS X) from the Utilities window, then click Continue and follow the onscreen instructions.

I have a free 2.5' inch hdd bay where i'd like to install windows on in the future.
I think i may have to replace my wireless card ( based on a few google results) which i'm fine with as long as i can see it working without just so i know i won't waste money

SCREENSHOTS - By fusion71auThis is a brief guide on how to create a vanilla El Capitan (also same process for Sierra) OS X Installer USB with an updated prelinked kernel containing FakeSMC.
It is tailored for those users who want to understand the “nuts and bolts” of how to create an installer and also to help brush up on their terminal skills (rather than have one made for them with the numerous automated “tools” available or even Apple’s createinstallmedia) :
Specifically, it is also a “Proof of Concept” which shows that installation is possible without even having to rely on boot loader kext injection.
Prerequisites
Existing Yosemite installation (or Mavericks - see post#4 for steps 7,8) “Install OS X El Capitan.app' downloaded to the Applications folder Pacifist FakeSMC.kext - Slice or Kozlek branch Bootloader - Clover or Chameleon 8GB or larger USB drive (16GB recommended), formatted HFS+ (MBR or GUID) named “Installer”
Procedure
1. Boot into Yosemite with the kext-dev-mode=1 boot flag
2. Open OS X terminal and type the following lines, followed by <Enter> after each line.
The image restore and file copying may take a while to complete, and at the end of the process, the Installer volume is renamed to “OS X Base System'....
sudo -shdiutil attach /Applications/Install OS X El Capitan.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmgasr restore -source /Volumes/OS X Install ESD/BaseSystem.dmg -target /Volumes/Installer -erase -format HFS+ -noprompt -noverifyrm /Volumes/OS X Base System/System/Installation/Packagescp -av /Volumes/OS X Install ESD/Packages /Volumes/OS X Base System/System/Installationcp -av /Volumes/OS X Install ESD/BaseSystem.dmg /Volumes/OS X Install ESD/BaseSystem.chunklist /Volumes/OS X Base Systemdiskutil unmount /Volumes/OS X Install ESDexit 3. Right click on the “OS X Base System” Volume and click “Get Info”
4. Click on the lock icon and untick “Ignore ownership on this volume”
5. Extract/Copy the El Capitan Kernels folder into /System/Library/ of the USB with Pacifist. NB It is found in the 'Essentials.pkg' in /System/Installation/Packages
6. Delete or Rename the original /System/Library/PrelinkedKernels/prelinkedkernel —> OG.prelinkedkernel
7. Copy FakeSMC.kext and other necessary kexts (e.g. VoodooPS2Controller.kext for laptops) into the /Library/Extensions folder of the installer USB using Finder.
8. Back in terminal, type the following lines, followed by <Enter> after each line to rebuild the prelinkedkernel…..
sudo -schmod -R 755 /Volumes/OS X Base System/Library/Extensionschown -R 0:0 /Volumes/OS X Base System/Library/Extensionstouch /Volumes/OS X Base System/System/Library/Extensionskextcache -u /Volumes/OS X Base Systemexit Any errors should be noted but the output below is normal e.g.
9. Install your Bootloader targeting the OS X Base System volume
10. Boot your system with the USB without injected kexts into the OS X Installer GUI....
Post Install
The original prelinked kernel in a fresh install of El Capitan will also lack FakeSMC ie it will only be linked to Apple signed kexts. In order to boot into El Capitan the first time around without boot loader kext injection, the PLK needs to be rebuilt for the El Capitan volume like we did for the installer:
1. Boot into Yosemite with the kext-dev-mode=1 boot flag
2. Delete or Rename the original /System/Library/PrelinkedKernels/prelinkedkernel for the El Capitan volume —> OG.prelinkedkernel
3. Copy FakeSMC.kext and other necessary kexts (e.g. VoodooPS2Controller.kext for laptops) into the /Library/Extensions folder of El Capitan using Finder
4. Back in terminal, type the following lines, followed by <Enter> after each line to rebuild the prelinkedkernel. In this example, the El Capitan volume is named 'El_Capitan' - change if you have named it something else...
sudo -schmod -R 755 /Volumes/El_Capitan/Library/Extensionschown -R 0:0 /Volumes/El_Capitan/Library/Extensionstouch /Volumes/El_Capitan/System/Library/Extensionskextcache -u /Volumes/El_Capitanexit 5. Install your Bootloader targeting the El Capitan volume. This step is only necessary if you are installing El Capitan on a new drive without existing boot loader (not required if installing on a disk with existing boot loader beside Yosemite).
6. Reboot your system without injected kexts into El Capitan!

Updates for Sierra and High Sierra Custom Prelinkedkernel Generator Tool I have made a custom prelinkedkernel generator 'PLK.tool' for Sierra + El Capitan. Instructions: 1. Download and extract the attached BaseSystem_PLK.tool.zip into your ~/Downloads folder. 2. Copy any extra kexts necessary for booting your hack to ~/Downloads/BaseSystem/ExtraKexts (e.g. FakeSMC, VoodooPS2Controller), making sure SIP is disabled. 3. Copy BaseSystem.dmg to ~/Downloads/BaseSystem 4. Open terminal and run the following commands... cd ~/Downloads/BaseSystemchmod +x PLK.tool./PLK.tool ---> supply your admin password ---> will place your new custom prelinkedkernel on the desktop. macOS High Sierra bypass Firmware and MBR checks in post#13.
