Trying to boot from a USB flash drive to install Windows, run diagnostic tools, or recover your system on an MSI laptop, but it keeps booting straight into Windows? 🚀 In this quick guide, I'll show you the exact key and method to open the Boot Device Selection Menu on virtually every MSI gaming and office laptop! 👉 Quick Tip: Turn off your MSI laptop completely (or restart it). Press the Power button to turn it on. Immediately start repeatedly tapping the F11 key on your keyboard (tap it continuously every second, do not just hold it down) until the Boot Selection Menu appears on the screen. Use the arrow keys to select your bootable USB drive or SSD, and press Enter. (Pro-tip: If you want to enter the full BIOS/UEFI settings instead, tap the Delete (Del) key repeatedly instead of F11. If Windows loads too fast due to Fast Startup, hold Shift while clicking "Restart" inside Windows).
