Unable to create bootable USB to mount kali linux iso image?

I want to dual boot kali linux. I'm mounting kali linux.iso to create a bootable USB with the help of Rufus. Rufus shows the following errors when i start the process.

It asks for download some file which I've no idea what they are and why Rufus seems so interested in downloading them before creating bootable USB. Is there any way to get around this error?

Edit: Issue resolved

ldlinux.sys is the name of the bootloader file used in SYSLINUX and ISOLINUX (used for booting Linux off of FAT32 and ISO9660 filesystems, respectively). It is loaded into memory by the BIOS on bootup. The loader then parses the configuration file (syslinux.cfg or isolinux.cfg) to know which kernel to launch, along with parameters to be passed to it.

Essentialy you need these files or else linux will not run.

You do realise that this is NOT an error message, but just a prompt asking for your permission before downloading a file off the internet (which is more polite than an application that connects to the internet, without asking permission first).

As the prompt indicates you just had to "Select 'Yes' to connect to the internet and download the files". That's all.

just you wanna do is that download the two files(ldlinux.bss and ldlinux.sys) below in the links and copy the files in C:\Users\sravan\Downloads\rufus_files\syslinux-6.04\20190226 and paste it there. (the rufus directory will be on the folder where the rufus.exe is kept ); download links: it worked for me;
