Whether you are an IT professional overseeing a whole team of Apple computers or just an ordinary person who needs help restoring a non-working PC, having a recovery tool at hand will be highly helpful for you. 

The problem with traditional recovery tools lies in their dependence on the Internet, the connectivity of which may be unavailable when needed.

Making a macOS bootable USB can help you overcome this challenge as it will provide you with an easy way of installing/upgrading your operating system independently from an Internet connection. Let's see how to make one yourself.

Essential Prerequisite List

There are a couple of tools that you should prepare to ensure a smooth procedure:

  • Flash Drive: A high-quality flash drive should be prepared. 

  • macOS Installer: Visit the Mac App Store and download the complete installer for the desired operating system version. 

Step-by-Step Drive Creation

After plugging in the hardware device and downloading the software completely, it is time to start creating your customized macos usb installer

  1. Drive Formatting

Launch the Disk Utility program, select the physical drive on your computer, and hit the "Erase" button. Choose to format the drive using the Mac OS Extended (journaled) and give it a name such as "Untitled".

  1. Open the Terminal App

From your computer applications, go to the Utilities sub-folder and launch the Terminal program. This is the location from which the commands for the drive customization process are issued.

  1. Input Developer Command

Enter the official command for creating an install media file specific to your particular macOS version, ensuring you replace all text in the command line with the "Untitled" drive name

  1. Authorize the Wipe

Hit the "Return" key, enter your administrator password, and type "Y" to proceed. The terminal will automatically delete everything on the disk and start copying the files necessary for booting.

These steps would be beneficial for you; however, if you are looking for more information, Datarecovee is the website you should refer to.
