How to Create a Mac OS X USB Boot Drive on Windows
This tutorial will help you create a bootable USB flash drive for your Mac on a Windows computer.
In order for this to work you should have a USB flash drive. The one I used in my tutorial was 16GB in size, but it will work with any flash drive that is 8GB in size or higher.
Open command prompt as an administrator and enter the following commands to convert your USB drive from MBR to GPT fomat:
diskpart
list disk
select disk X (where X is the number of your USB flash drive)
clean
convert GPT
create partition primary
Transmac can be downloaded from AcuteSystems.com at http://www.acutesystems.com/scrtm.htm
The application costs a one off fee of £59, however you can use Transmac without any restrictions for fifteen days. That's more than enough time to do what you need to do.
The DMG file for Mac OS X can now be downloaded free of charge from Apple.
Mac OS X El Capitan - https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT206886
Mac OS X macOS Catalina - https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201475
Mac OS Downloads - https://support.apple.com/en_US/downloads/macos
Once you have your USB boot drive, you can boot up from the drive by inserting the USB drive into your Mac and then pressing the option (⌥) key as soon as your computer loads. This will allow you to select which drive you boot from.
If you see the no/prohibited/forbidden symbol after selecting your USB drive to boot (it's like a circle with a line through it i.e. ø), try and go back into the recovery area by pressing command and R when your Mac is loading and unmounting the drive.
There is a good discussion about this issue at http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/when-booting-from-usb-i-get-circle-with-line-through-it.1411034/
Some people had better luck entering into safe mode using command and S - see the discussion at http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/circle-slash-prohibitory-sign-and-spinning-gear-no-boot.683873/
There is a lot of great information about the prohibited symbol at https://bombich.com/kb/ccc4/help-my-clone-wont-boot too.
