I use these along with Easy2boot to start up PCs with mucked up HDDs in order to back up data.

If you try it on another computer it will trigger the reactivation and if done too many times will lock out the activation code.Īs an emergency boot media I have my own flavor of Windows PE made with WinBuilder in various flavors (7 and 10 in 32 and 64 bit). As long as you use it only on the unit on which it was created on it will not prompt toe reactivate Windows. I just do it for the hell of it and should my SSD bite the dust I would be ready to go with something to limp along with from a spare USB HDD. And even on a USB HDD on a USB 3 port it is so slow I'd hate to use it regularly. I regularly use an app named Win To USB and back up my laptop's SSD to a USB HDD, a WD Passport drive to be precise. Wonko the Insane - yes, it's glacially slow.

Meniyakalpeshjeetubhai - NO, if you manage to install Windows to a flash drive it will NOT delete the contents of the HDD. Geez, you guys really dug up an old thread. Which BTW is made by a nice German guy, so I presume that you may ask for info/help in your native tongue.įor 7 there are a couple simple ways, including PWBOOT: Seriously, what you posted is simply non-English (in the sense that it contains a lot of English words that put together have no or little meaning), can you try to re-phrase?

Humm why did not create anyone a virtual mashin for usb-key's, USB-flashdrives or Usb-hd's or something

Thanks for the response! Where can I find a cd (as I understood you are saying to use live cd) that doesn't copy anything to ram when booting and can save the changes when I reboot (when copied to flash drive of course). dont give up on it because that will be wasted time and all the other methods are not without issues either and from what I have found the other methods increase the extra issues (errors) you have to to deal with.īoot from cd, copy your now usboot'ized windows and paste it onto the usb drive.

USBoot is the easiest and by far but its not completely simple. Saving changes (persistant) is normal but if you dont want to save changes you need to install and enable ewf (different topic) I will really appreciate if you educate my noob ass.

I'm not even sure it's possible, many people on this forum say it is, but I can't find any exact information on how to do it. I also would prefer if I could save the changes I've made back to the flash drive when I shut down the computer or reboot it.

try it, sometimes on first boot after doing this you will get blue screen freeze but from my experience it boots successfully after that.Īny way to install Windows directly on the flash drive? Or something that wouldn't need copying of the current operating system. If you made it this far and it wont copy from inside windows then you can use a boot cd then you can literally copy/paste your windows (make sure hidden and system files are visible) to the USB FD. And even after it's done I can't copy the files to my flash drive since Windows won't let me. Its not as simple as it could be that is for sure but it is the 'easiest way' Thank you for your response! I actually tried out USBoot and it is quite a hassle.
