Hi.
Whenever I create a WindowsToGO Stick out of my Win 10 Pro machine it is licensed as soon as it is online.
Is my Win10 license copied to the stick while creating it? Any chance to remove it to give the stick to colleagues so that they have to enter their own key?

Thank you very much!

Hi I hava a MacBook Pro 13" Retina, Mid 2014 and I wanted to use WinToUSB with this.
I created both, a clone version of my Windows system and a fresh Win7 Pro system but both resulted in a bluescreen.

The Windows is starting but at one point there appears to be a problem.

I do not know what all the numbers and codes mean but maybe one of you can help me.

Thanks!

hi,

first of all, thank you for that great tool!

my question does not directly concern WintoUSB but it´s hard related.

short version: if i want to boot different boot.wim (WinPE, Win Setup, Dart,) in UEFI Mode i get black screen, in BIOS Mode all is working great.

long version:

I was able to create an working Win10togo ssd, bootable in BIOS and UEFI mode.

The ssd looks like this: 30GB FAT32 Boot Partition and another 80GB NTFS Partion for System

In the next step i added an customized Win10 PE System, Win10 Setup and MS Dart10. The necessary files (boot.wim ect..) are copied to the FAT Boot Partition. The bcd was modified to boot this additional Tools.

The good thing is, all the other Tools are booting up and working in BIOS Mode, but not in UEFI.

If i try to boot in UEFI mode, i get the first message "loading files" after that the windows logo should appear, but i only get an black screen.

Nothing more happens, this is true for the Win10PE, Win10 Setup, MS Dart.

The strange thing is, i have all this tools working on another thumb stick, with identical files.

Has anybody a good idea what the problem could be?

This seems to be an issue that I have not been able to conquer yet. Microsoft seem to have a restriction on updating Windows to Version 1607 Anniversary update with an external USB drive as system drive. Does anyone have any information on how to do this ?

kind regards

Martin

cannot find bootable image(0x000000C400250000)

I have installed WinToUSB and tried to upload win8.1 pro.iso but its not working. Its giving me error.

Image is ok, bcz i am using this image from long and yesterday for installation.

Please assist me.

Hope I may ask one more question (not a problem). I have learnt that Windows can only recognize one partition on removable media. But WinToUSB can create 2 partitions.  When I shrunk my Windows 10 installation to create space for cloning a Linux Kubuntu partition onto the same flash drive, I was later able to mount Kubuntu from Windows 10, (see end of https://youtu.be/l9MFxbUI_9Q ) Pls explain!

I am curious about why some of my older MBR tools report the main partition as type 11 (fat32) when it obviously is type 7 (ntfs) - see picture!  Or is it so that removable media has another set of partition types?  Are you using another formatting tool that a normal Windows format?  Please clarify!
   

I installed WinToUSB very well on a 32GB flash drive. When I formatted it afterwards for other uses, it's letting me back only 28GB!

Hi everybody,
