Main issue with Rufus is secure boot unfortunately, otherwise Rufus is easy enough that I gave a couple “click here, then here, then here and here are some screenshots” to a friend they were able to navigate it just fine. At this point I swear Rufus is easier than using the official installer provided Secure Boot is off.

    Images patched by Rufus can definitely pass secureboot, as long the bootloader wasn't touched. Secureboot only checks the signature of the bootloader, not every single file of the operating system, otherwise it will take hours to boot

    Plus Rufus touches some XML read by the installer, doesn't crack the executables
