Sounds like your USB drive was not successfully created. Are you following the official Kali tutorial on how to create the USB?

When verifying the hash what hash do you get?

Fixed ty, file system of the usb wasn't correct, but now I can't open EasyBCD...

I'm trying to follow the instructions here: docs.kali.org/downloading/kali-linux-live-usb-install
It says use Win32 Disk Imager to create bootable Kali, but whilst in the menu of the program it only allows .img to be selected. There isn't an option to select an .iso file. How can this issue be solved?

I've actually had success with Rufus and YUMI. I've never tried using UUI, but I'll give it a go, thanks.

Just change the drop down to show all files. It should show an * as the extension mask.
Use Win32 Disk Imager as suggested. It properly partitions and formats your USB drive.

I've actually done this but I couldn't be sure that it would work once I created the USB. I appreciate your support though, thanks.
