There are some alternate applications for creating live USB, but I never able to create live USB successfully. The biggest plus of UNetbootin over ImageWriter is, you can still use remaining space for other purposes. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/316666

Discussion: #1: Damian Ivanov (damianator) (2013-10-28 14:59:41) IMHO ImageWrite should be removed completely. For dos/nt based systems there is a perfect tool called rufus (1st result on google) which can create usb's of all linux live cd's I could think of as well as it make usb sticks from windows xp/vista/7 install cd/dvd's as well as freedos and whatever.
