error cloning windows 7 starter

[admin]

Finally, useful information! I reinitialized my laptop and ran WinToUSB and it created a bootable usb for me! I booted from it, and it worked! Thank you!

I wondered how I could tell I booted from the usb stick, since it looked the same, and I thought I would install chrome there, since that is not on my laptop (yet).

Strangely, it put the program files in my laptops hard drive, instead of on the usb.

I know this is not your problem, but I thought I would see if you had any experience that could help me.

Thank you. Have a nice day!

Open Disk Management, if volume C: is on the USB flash disk then you are booting from the usb stick.
