How do I use the Media Creation Tool?

[Rodf 1]

I'm about ready to replace my desktop's HD with an SSD - waiting to get the 3.5" to 2.5" adapter. I've got a good USB drive that I'm ready to use for this purpose. I've downloaded the Media Creation Tool for this purpose.

 

Now, it's what do I do next with the USB drive and the Media Creation Tool? Do I simply copy the Media Creation Tool onto the USB drive? That doesn't seem right. I'm guessing that I have to plug the USB drive into my desktop, then run the Media Creation Tool. And then what?

Fire up the MCT and it'll download Win10 to the USB stick for you, then boot from it and install..
