Product: hp 15-bs145tu
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have already made a bootable drive and want to know what should i do next to run kali. Should i just plug in the usb drive and restart the laptop or should i also have to change some settings in system BIOS? I also want to know that how will i revert back to my windows 10 OS? Please help asap.

No.

 

Don't make any changes until  you have tried what I suggested first.

 

If you use the F9 key and you see the USB flash drive as an available boot option (you should see the brand name of the USB flash drive) then it should boot up.

 

BTW.. Parrot OS is much more fun than Kali linux. :Wink:  You can crack WPA2 with Parrot OS. (only for testing purposes, of course)

Pug in the USB flashdrive.

 

Press the power button and the immediately start tapping the F9 key to invoke the boot options.

 

Choose the USB flash drive as the boot option.

 

Kali Linux should boot up now. 

 

Choose live and not install in the menu in Kali Linux. That way you will be running the OS from the USB flash drive, not the hard disk.

 

As long as you do not install Linux there will be no changes made to your hard disk.

 

When you finish your Kali Linux session and shut it down, you can remove it and boot back to Windows 10.
