itman 1,659 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Based on a recent posting by an Eset forum moderator here: https://forum.eset.com/topic/35045-im-really-struggling-with-the-little-help-there-is-on-making-that-syslive-flashusb/?do=findComment&comment=161423 , SysRescue is no longer maintained and supported by Eset. That said, this Eset knowledge base article states how to use SysRescue: https://support.eset.com/en/kb3509-how-do-i-use-eset-sysrescue-live-to-clean-my-computer .

Administrators Marcos 5,074 Posted January 8, 2023 Administrators Share Posted January 8, 2023 Are you able to create a bootable USB using balenaEtcher as per https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows#1-overview ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itman 1,659 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Personally, I could never successfully create bootable SysRescue USB media from a .img download on my old PC. What worked for me was to download the .iso file and use a third party tool such as Rufus: https://rufus.ie/en/ to create bootable media. The only disadvantage of using the .iso download is you have to manually update Eset signature files from SysRescue each time prior to running a scan.

I just downloaded Rufus w/o issue from Eset. Are you stating that when you run Rufus to create bootable media from the prior downloaded .img file from Eset web site, Eset is detecting its own .img file? Also and again, have you tried downloading the .iso file and using that as source file in Rufus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
