| Checking VHDX on USB WTG |

You asked a user in another thread, "Is the Windows To Go USB drive a Legacy or VHD(X) mode Windows To Go?" What if it is VHD(X) mode, which mine is? The free Window to Go Upgrader v 2.9 doesn't show the VHDX on the USB drive in the GUI bars showing selection of boot and system drives, even if the VHDX is mounted with Disk Manager and assigned a drive letter. The end result of the check is an error message and the conclusion that it can't be upgraded. Is it supposed to work in VHD(X) on USB WTG installations?

Lost OneDrive files using WinToUSB Clone disks? - A SOLUTION! |

Hi!
I'm set up so that I can run three Windows 10 boot configurations on my Apple 2015 13" MacBook Pro: - Booting from the internal Apple SSD's BOOTCAMP volume
- Booting from a WinToUSB clone of that volume on an external Seagate Barracuda 2TB HDD
- Booting from a WinToUSB clone of that volume on an external Sabrent NVMe M.2 1TB SSD
All works perfectly, except for one very serious issue: each time I boot from one of these systems, files that I've placed in OneDrive on any one of the systems disappear (are mysteriously removed) when I boot from another one! This is true for all files that I've tried, including screenshots (OneDrive/Pictures/Screenshots), as well as downloaded files (OneDrive/Downloads). This occurs whenever I do anything with OneDrive. Note that sometimes the files which are gone will appear in the Recycle Bin, but not often.
I'm trying to understand what's going on. Clearly, the drive IDs are still unique, or else Windows would refuse to permit them to even mount, much less allow copying, etc, which it does. My Windows 10 account is identical across them. Somehow, the cloning process has convinced Windows 10/OneDrive that when it sees new files on OneDrive to delete them! Curiously, if I intentionally delete files on OneDrive on one clone, it will stay deleted on the other volumes. It's only adding new files that causes this problem to occur.
Please help me to understand how to work around this, for I rely heavily on OneDrive! Is this somehow a result of WinToUSB cloning?
[EDIT UPDATE:] I'm beginning to think that having the convenience of being able to rapidly change boot modes may have just hidden the simple fact that it takes time for OneDrive to synchronize changes to files, and I may just not be giving it enough time to do so. If that's what's happening, WinToUSB cloning isn't the problem. More testing will ensue...
[2ND UPDATE] No, waiting for synchronization, by checking for the files online, shows that the problem is still happening - the files get deleted. The question is whether this is just a pure OneDrive problem, or whether it's a WinToUSB problem...
Thank you very much!
Best Regards,
Mark

Hello,
I want to use WinToUSB to install a fresh Windows (Windows 10 Education 64 Bit) on my USB flash drive and to be able to upgrade this Windows installation with Windows To Go Upgrader. What are the required size of the USB flash drive? Are 32 GB sufficient? I would use the "clean up system files" feature of Windows before upgrading, because I know Windows needs a lot of disk space for temporary files.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I have setup Windows USB.
I have now 2 drives one is called c: and the second one is D: which contains the Win2USB.VHDS file.
I also setup Bitlocker (in case I lose the USB stick) .
My question is this:
is the VHDS file encrypted?
When I go to Bitlocker manager is tells me that C: is encrypted but d: is not.
Can anyone explain it to me?
Thanks

Hi guys,
I'm looking to just install a Windows 10 Home edition on a USB Thumb Drive. I used a 16GB USB Thumb Drive but got the error that it doesn't have enough storage, the usable storage on the drive is 15.1GB though. In this case how much storage do I need on the USB Thumb Drive to just install a Windows 10 Home edition? 32GB?

| WinToUSB drive and Cumulative Updates |

Hello,
I successfully created a Win 10 1809 WinToUSB drive a few months ago.
I'm having problems installing monthly security cumulative updates through
Windows Update. Is it possible to complete such an update? Other monthly
updates complete successfully in Windows Update.
I've posted on the Microsoft Community without a worthy reply. When faced
with questions on monthly updates, the MVPs almost always recommend a
feature upgrade rather than diagnosing any error code. As you know a
Windows To Go upgrade can't be completed (at least not without your
Upgrader software). I've run through a set of online Microsoft Windows Update
Fix suggestions. None of them succeeded. I always receive a 80070157 error code
from Windows Update. Is anyone an expert error code interpreter?
I also read Microsoft blocked updates for people with USB drives starting in May.
I still receive the same error code now in July. Before I consider purchasing
your Upgrader software, I would like to know definitively whether monthly
security cumulative updates are possible to complete!
Thanks

Hello,
Microsoft announced that it is stopping development of Windows To Go.
How will this effect Hasleo's software in the future? I created a bootable
USB drive with WinToUSB and am considering a purchase of Upgrader.
May Microsoft completely remove support from future Win 10 builds
and render your software unusable?
