Hi Team, I put more efforts on this and fixed issue at my end itself.
If you see rufus download page "https://rufus.ie/en/". here a bug has been fixed in Rufus version 4.2, below are fixed issues/enhancements in 4.2 version of Rufus (*highlighted one* was the issue with me as I was using Rufus 3.x version):- - *Version 4.2* (2023.07.26) - Add detection and warning for UEFI revoked bootloaders (including ones revoked through SkuSiPolicy.p7b) - Add ZIP64 support, to extract .zip images that are larger than 4 GB - Add saving and restoring current drive to/from compressed VHDX image - Add saving and restoring current drive to/from compressed FFU (Full Flash Update <https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/deploy-windows-using-full-flash-update--ffu>) image *[EXPERIMENTAL]* - Fix a crash when trying to open Windows ISOs, with the MinGW compiled x86 32-bit version - *Fix an issue where ISOs that contain a boot image with an 'EFI' label are not detected as bootable* - Increase the ISO → ESP limit for Debian 12 netinst images - Ensure that the main partition size is aligned to the cluster size so now I have installed Qube OS 4.2.0 RC4 successfully on my machine. in nut shell, following steps helped me to get fix of this issue:- 1. Using latest version of Rufus (4.2 or above) 2. Updating BIOS to its latest version 3. Verification and usage of corrected Qube OS ISO file >From my end, this mail trail can be considered *closed* now.
