  • Is there any requirement for the target drive?

    You should select a USB drive with fast transmission speed. Also, the USB storage space should be larger than that of your current system drive. And the external hard drive is supported!

  • Can I use this software to Create Windows To Go drive on my Windows 11?

    Yes, you can. This software is available on any edition of Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11.

  • Will I lose the data in my USB drive?

    Yes, the software will format the USB drive once you click the Start button. Therefore, you need to use the new blank USB or back up the data in USB drive in advance.

  • Why there is nothing when I boot my Windows 10 computer with the USB drive created on my Windows 11 computer?

    For the users who use the current system to create the bootable Windows USB with PE file, it needs to reboot the current computer from USB and run into the WinPE environment to complete the Windows data cloning operation. So, if you just simply click the Start button on the software and wait for the completion in using native system method, there will be nothing after you boot another computer from that USB drive.

  • What's the difference between the two ways to create the bootable Windows USB drive?

    When you choose to make a portable Windows using the native system, you need to restart the computer and boot it from the USB drive to create an identical system on the USB in PE mode. After that, you can boot any Windows computer from the USB device and get your personalize Windows system.

    If you choose to make a portable Windows using the ISO image file, you can directly get the clean Windows system on the USB device after it finishes. And then you can apply it on any Windows computer.

  • How long does it take to create the portable Windows drive?

    Generally, the time taken depends on the USB drive/external hard drive transfer speed and the size of the ISO file. But when you choose to create portable Windows drive via native PE file, more time is required to clone the Windows data to target drive after booting the computer into PE environment.
