Using a program like balenaEtcher or any other SD card writer does NOT require that the SD card be pre-formatted. These programs write the image over the raw SD card; not over a file-system on the SD card.
Due to the partitioning of the SD card Windows will never accept it and will always tell you it needs to be formatted.
