Sure, you can always set up a bootable USB of Mac OS X on your Apple system; but you can also do the same thing in Windows 10. So, if something goes wrong with an Apple computer, a Mac OS bootable USB with the installation program is needed. Therefore, you should consider making a Mac OS bootable USB, even though your computer is working properly. This is how Mac users without access to bootable Mac system can set up a Mac OS bootable USB media in Windows 10. There are a few things you’ll need to set up a Mac OS bootable USB media in Windows. The first is a large USB flash drive with up to 16 GB storage space. That flash USB drive should be empty and compatible with the Mac OS X filesystem. So you might need to format the drive for full Mac OS compatibility. Secondly, you’ll need a Mac OS X DMG file. You can save a Mac OS X Yosemite DMG to Windows 10 from the Apple Store. To get the DMG from Apple Store, you’ll also need an Apple ID. Finally, the TransMac software for Windows 10 is also required.
