Startup Disk Creator - not found in Ubuntu Software Centre

I am trying to create a bootable USB startup disk in 20.04

According to instructions, I should use "Startup Disk Creator". But this application does not appear to be installed on my machine. So to Ubuntu Software Centre, but a search there only give the message application not found.

Where is it then?


Solution 1:

If you are comfortable using the command line, you can install it as follows:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install usb-creator-gtk

Note:

On my system, I have two "software centers" installed.

  1. Software
  2. Ubuntu Software

When I search for "Startup Disk Creator" in either of these, I do get a listing for this application. I am also able to search using "usb-creator-gtk", and I get a result.

Try searching for "usb-creator-gtk". If you don't get a result, there may be another issue on your system.

However, executing the (apt) commands above will show you if there is another underlying error.
