USB flash drive with OS X 10.11

[FireLion]

Hello, Macerrs! Help me please. I have big problems: I accidentally deleted my Mac. How can I update it with USB Flash? I have Windows 10 and MacBooc Pro 2013

If you hold down CMD + R before you hear the startup chime from your Mac, you should be able to log into a wireless network and download OS X directly to your harddrive.

You need another Mac if you wish to create a USB thumb drive with OS X.

Your 2013 Mac has Internet recovery that will work even if you deleted the drive based recovery volume.

Just hold command-option-r (all three at once) at startup. Select your wifi network then you will see a spinning globe while the recovery utility downloads. Once that is done you will see the recovery screen. From there use Disk Utility to erase your drive to MA OS X Extended (Journaled). Then quit Disk Utility and click reinstall OS X.

Once the ~7GB download is done and the OS installs it will restart and you can create an account. This will have you on the OS version that came from the factory. Then if you like you can go to the App Store and download and install El Capitan on top of the existing install.

All of this of course will erase your data.

I want to save Windows. Can I create Hard Disk on Windows for Mac?

If you have the OS X installer file, I have read you can make a USB key installer under Windows using the app Transmac. If you search Youtube there is a video on it.

Internet recovery is pretty easy to use its basically the same as the USB version except it takes a lot longer depending on your internet speeds.
