I want to make a bootable USB for Mac using my Windows 10. Is it possible? How? Or How can I instal MacOS onto USB while in Windows environment and boot using that USB?
I googled it first but it is way complicated. or am I dummy?
Please, help.
Thanks in advance!

Technically it might be possible, but I've never seen any instructions using a non-Apple OS. It is not worth the trouble to figure out except as an exercise to satisfy curiosity. All of the instructions require running the installer to create the bootable USB drive which cannot be done with a non-Apple OS. It is difficult to manually create bootable media for Apple without the use of Apple's tools. Since you need a Mac to download the installer anyway, why not create the USB drive too? If macOS is not currently installed, you may be able to boot into Internet Recovery mode if the system had OSX 10.12.4+ installed at some point.

I think I did it. Using recovery page, I reinstalled it onto my USB. Thanks.
But actually, I wanted to explore my previous mac but could't do anything :(
