Reinstall macOS on 2012 i5 Macbook Pro
I was given a Macbook from my job sonce they're retired specs are as follows:
macbook pro 2012
i5 2.6 GHz
4GB RAM
I am trying to reinstall the OS. Tried internet recovery by holding down Command+R but it is not downloading the files saying an error has occurred. I have a working Macbook with the same specs. I am a windows user so I know how to create a bootable thumb drive in Windows but trying to learn Mac OS is hard enough and not having or knowledge therein is making it hard. Is it easy to create a bootable thumb drive within MacOS or can someone guide me to reinstall the OS on this Macbokk

since the macbook is from 2012 look for anything LION or mountain lion OSX
hope you still have that macbook, I think that was the best they made.
