I have the same problem, once I select the image it doesn’t let me select target. I’m using Windows 10 and it refuses to work. Was having the same problem in Mac earlier, tried on Mac again and it accepts image but doesn’t detect device to flash.

Was having the same issue. Just searched for an older version on google and that worked for me. I installed the Aug 2023 version and didnt hang anymore

Try the following steps:

  1. Check the File Format: Ensure the file is a supported format (e.g., .img, .iso, .zip).
  2. Run as Administrator: Open balenaEtcher with administrative privileges.
  3. Update balenaEtcher: Ensure you have the latest version installed.
  4. Verify the File: Make sure the file isn’t corrupted by verifying its checksum.
  5. Re-download the File: If the file is corrupted, download it again from a reliable source.
  6. Try a Different USB Drive: Sometimes the issue could be with the USB drive itself.

If these steps don’t help, provide more details about the error you’re encountering.
