Open Raspberry Pi Imager and choose the required OS from the list presented.
Choose the SD card you wish to write your image to.
Review your selections and click 'WRITE' to begin writing data to the SD card.
Using other tools
Most other tools require you to download the image first, then use the tool to write it to your SD card.

Download the image
Official images for recommended operating systems are available to download from the Raspberry Pi website downloads page.

Alternative distributions are available from third-party vendors.

You may need to unzip .zip downloads to get the image file (.img) to write to your SD card.
