Hi,

I am trying to install Windows on a 128gb flash drive on a uefi pc that has a tiny 32gb hard drive.

The issue is that I format to GPT using EASEUS, but when I start the WinToUSB program (physical to usb) it converts it to mbr. Why.? The current OS drive is GPT.


Thanks,

I tried to use the Windows 10 Enterprise RTM ISO and it seems it get to 91% and the GUI just disappears...gone!  Poof!  I tried with 2.2 and 2.3 beta.

I am on a macbook pro retina. I am trying run windows 10 from a SD card.

1.So I use win2usb to place windows 10 on the card.
2. Reboot and select the SD card and windows startup begins.
3. Windows installs and I get to desktop perfectly.
4. I install the latest version of bootcamp (which should be SD card compatible)
5. I reboot and Windows begins only to get a "blue screen" that says "Inaccessible_boot_device"

Anyone have any ideas why this might be happening or how to fix ?

For some reason, my Windows 8.1 installation has 2 partitions: 1 is about 14GB, bootable and nearly full, with Windows installed. The 2nd is about 111GB but is "not accessible" when I boot from my USB drive. The smaller one is the C drive, the larger one is the D drive.

When I look at it from another Windows machine, I see those 2 partitions but the larger one is readable. It has a Windows image file on it which is identical to the smaller drive.

So, right now this is useless because although I can run Windows, my disk space is unusable since it's all on the inaccessible drive. Can someone tell me what's going on?

Will win2usb create a 32bit eufi system?

Hi guys

Tried the WinToUSB Free tool which works great for my build of a Windows 8.1 Pro portable USB drive.

Once done I have been able to boot to my PC with everything working great.

So, thinking this really is portable, I boot up another computer for testing to see how the portable drive will work and cope on an alternative system, which is simply being used to test/service the other PC if/when it has errors, needs fixing etc. This is a valid licence of Win 8.1 Pro.

While it boots really good, the activation of Windows is no longer valid, I assume once the activation period is over then it can no longer be used on an different computer for testing/service purposes. Or have I missed something? Or will the Pro version sort this out, I'm happy to buy if it does.

Cheers

Hey i would like to ask if WinToUSB would run well on linux with wine or PlayOnLinux because i already tried and i dosen't show me any disks to install windows and i'm trying to run it on linux beacause i have no windows computer at the moment.

Hello,
I got the error "failed to run system api" with V2.2
I used the tiny7 windows mod (did this cause the error?)
User.log:

Hi,

Does WinToUSB support writing to a fixed size VHDX when running from 8.1 host? I believe running from 7 Pro writes a VHD. VHDX is more fault tolerant than the 10 year old VHD format.

I noticed there is a WinToUSB.VHD file on the NTFS partition. Can this be converted to VHDX? Would I need to update any MBR/EUFI records with diskpart?

Thanks!
