Background: I'm booted onto my PC with my Windows to Go Drive. My PC has a local install of windows on it's HDD which I'm trying to create a VHDx of. 
Using WinToUSB Version 4.9 Build May 27 2019

I've used Disk2vhd to create a Vhdx file of 

• Disk 0 - All partitions 
  

• Disk 0 - Just the Windows partition
  

Hi all,
I tried to fresh install win10 to an external 1tb HDD but it asks to format the the drive. unfortunately i have filled it. and only about 200 GB is free space now. which is more than enough for a windows installation. i can't move or delete those files as i don't have any other storage option. is there any way to install into that free space without wiping / formatting the whole drive? I will follow any step by step instructions. thanks in advance.

Windows 1903 is released.

When the WinToUSB will support it ?

I bought a new PC and of course I now want to have a WinToUSB clone made from the new one. How do I transfer the license from the old PC to the new one?

Been working on this all day. I got Win10 from the store on a Microsoft USB drive. I found the SWM files in the x64/sources directory figuring I wanted the 64-bit version of Home. For the life of me it wouldn’t install using paid version 4.8.

I decided to try the install.swm file in the x86/sources directory. It is installing now, but “stuck” at 0%. Not sure if it is really stuck. Will give it time.

I will send logs if this doesn’t work. Just wondering what the diff between the x64 and x86 versions.

(Edit)

Well, I have Win7 64-bit installed. The difference is one is 64-bit and the other is 32-bit. Only have 4GB of RAM so the 32-bit Win10 should be OK.

Spinny circle still at 0%.

(Edit)

Circle still at 0% but drive is filling up...went from 164MB used to 260something. Something is happening. It is usb 2.0 on an older laptop. Sooooo..plus the usb drive I am installing on is probably not ideal. I read something about 4K read/write times.

(Edit)

Just as I posted last edit, it flipped to 1% then 2 then 5.

I have several external USB devices (cheap SSDs in UGREEN USB 3.0 enclosures) that can boot to Windows 10. But as most of our PCs are on 1809 already I cannot simply clone those PCs to an WinToUSB device. HASLEO says that to produce a bootable USB device one can use VHDs. I tried with differrent PC backups that I made with Disk2VHD and so far use with VMware Player installed on the device specific external SSD. I hope that I could increase speed when booting these VHDs directly and not via a virtual machine player.
Is this possible with WinToUSB?

I have made several backup devices with WinToUSB that can run the full Windows installation of their PCs. But I had no success so far with the notebook of my wife. As the second best solution I made an clean installation of 1809 with WTU 4.6 to an external SSD which can boot the notebook wihout any Problems. And in this fresh Windows I then start a backup of the Notebook in VHD Format from VMware Player 15. It works but is a little bit too much for my wife.
As I have bought only one License for WinToUSB Pro so far, I would like to know whether I can get a running Windows installation clone. For instance by replacing the Windows Partition that WTU installs on the external device with a backup from a backup and restore Programm or a partition copy with software for that. My first attempt with EaseUS Todo did not produce a bootable device.
Is there a way to get this running?

WinToUSB under Windows 7 attempting to apply Windows 10 .ISO file to MBR, UEFI or both in combination to VHD file on USB thumb drive generates error message "Failed to extract file from the WIM file. Please temporarily deactivate your anti-virus software , and try again.."

^^^^^^With no anti-virus software running... Multiple Thumb Drives...  Multiple .ISO files...  Is there a resolution to this??

I have a blank SATA laptop hard drive and I want to make it Windows to Go. I have made it external USB drive by using a hard drive USB enclosure/caddy. I have tried all methods to make it Windows to Go but after everything (installation/making phase) completed, it failed to boot/run windows. I have already tried "USB Flash Drive" method and "External Drive" method and "Internal Drive" method (after creating System and Boot partitions) 100 times but nothing worked. Installation got completed 100% but unable to boot/run windows from same drive.

Please note, its a SATA 2.5 inch laptop internal hard drive which is converted to an external hard drive through a USB enclosure/caddy.

Please guide step-by-step..i.e..how to format..how to install..how to run. Thanks in advance.

Hello,
    Who has experience backing up a drive created with WintoUSB ?
I've tried AOMEI Backupper Standard and Macrium Reflect. Both don't like
the Windows to Go drive . These work properly on my internal drive in Windows 10 1803.
 I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks
