Etcher (balenaEtcher) Overview

balenaEtcher (commonly called Etcher) is a free, open-source tool for Windows, macOS, and Linux that writes operating-system images to USB drives and SD cards safely and simply. It is widely used to flash Linux distributions, Raspberry Pi OS, and other images, and is known for a clean three-step interface — select image, select drive, flash — plus safeguards that help prevent accidentally overwriting your system drive and an automatic validation step that verifies the write. Its simplicity and cross-platform support make it a popular choice for makers and anyone preparing bootable media. The offline installer bundles everything Etcher (balenaEtcher) needs, so installation completes without a connection. It can flash multiple drives at once and verifies each write, which helps when preparing several identical USB sticks or SD cards.
