Until 1.2.0, two separate versions were provided, with one for MS-DOS and one for FreeDOS. Version 1.0.4 introduced FreeDOS support and version 1.1.0 introduced ISO image support. The first official release of Rufus, version 1.0.3 (earlier versions were internal/alpha only ), was released on December 04, 2011, with originally only MS-DOS support. Rufus was originally designed as a modern open source replacement for the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool for Windows, which was primarily used to create DOS bootable USB flash drives. Rufus (The Reliable USB Formatting Utility, with Source ) is a free and open-source portable application for Microsoft Windows that can be used to format and create bootable USB flash drives or Live USBs.
