As outlined in the '''[[Download Manjaro| Download Manjaro page]]''', an ISO is not simply a 'drag and drop' or 'copy and paste' duplication of Manjaro's installation files. It is in fact a copy of the raw computer code that makes up the files themselves. This is why it is necessary to use a '''software burning application''' to 'burn' an ISO file, that is, convert its raw code into the files onto a physical medium such as a DVD or USB flashdrive / datastick in order to use it. Once burned / converted, the files on that medium can then be used to run Manjaro directly without having to install it to your system (referred to as ''Live-CD or Live-USB'' mode), and/or install Manjaro on your system. Again however, it will not be necessary to to burn an ISO if you intend on running Manjaro in a virtual machine environment using Oracle's Virtualbox. This is because Virtualbox is able to read ISO files directly as ''virtual disks''. | |||
{{note|Manjaro will not have full functionality when run in Live-CD mode. For example, you will not be able to save any changes to the system, or install updates or new applications.}} | |||

Several different software burning applications - if not already installed - should be available for installation from your distribution's Software Center / Software Manager / Package Manager / repositories. Popular burners include ''XFBurn'', ''K3b'', and ''Brasero''. Which one you may choose is entirely down to personal choice. However, a guide to burning your downloaded Manjaro ISO using Brasero has been provided below: | Several different software burning applications - if not already installed - should be available for installation from your distribution's Software Center / Software Manager / Package Manager / repositories.

===Burning to a CD/DVD in Windows=== | |||
In Windows 7 and later, support for burning an ISO to DVD is built-in. Simply right click on the on .iso file and select "Burn disk image". This will bring up a series of dialogues to walk you through the process. | |||
For Windows Vista or older versions of Windows you will need to download 3rd party software. Several free software burner applications are available for Windows. One such tool is DeepBurner. The portable version can be downloaded from [https://pendriveapps.com/deepburner-portable/ here]. | For Windows Vista or older versions of Windows you will need to download 3rd party software.

===Using the Terminal=== | |||
To burn the iso on an usb stick, enter the following command in a terminal : | |||
