I've saved Windows 10 onto a USB from your Mac. When I attempt to boot the USB on my new PC, it prompts me to restart and choose the correct boot device or insert the media into the selected slot and press a key. The issue is I’m unsure how to select the right boot device; I’ve tried navigating through BIOS to set it up but couldn’t locate where to boot from the USB. Note: I’m using a Gigabyte motherboard with an EVGA GPU.

No, the ISO isn't just left there—it needs to be converted into a bootable USB drive for use.

Ya, i guess that is the problem because it isn't identifying it as a bootable device. Heres the problem; i downloaded it off mac and programs like rufus are unable to be install because os x doesn't support windows stuff.

Consider using the disk utility—there are reports it functions well, or you can read more details if you're unsure about its operation.

You need to update your installation media. The warning indicates compatibility issues with Windows 10, so you should reinstall from a Windows 10 ISO file instead.

Please look for a Windows device. Use Rufus to create a bootable file from it. That’s the only option I can suggest.
