sdcard write error in rufus

0

I tried to write raspbian operating system to my sdcard. I put my sdcard into sdcard reader and then tried to format it to fat32. I can not do that with microsoft windows, so I downloaded sdformatter and my sdcard formatted successfully.

After that , I tried to write raspbian dd image into my sdcard, but I get an error and in logs I had:

Raspberry Pi has its own method of writing to the SD card. I would try that method to reduce the chance of write errors. https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/windows.md

It uses a specific program to write the image, which needs to be ran as administrator.
