How to Create Windows To Go Using Windows 10 1809 (October 2018 Update)?

Yesterday, I downloaded the latest version of Windows 10 1809 Enterprise ISO from Microsoft, then I created a Windows To Go using an external hard disk and the official Windows To Go creator wizard. After the creation was successful, I chose to boot from the USB drive in the BIOS. After waiting a long time, the Windows installation failed and I ended up not successfully starting Windows 10 1809 from the USB drive. Then I tried the third-party tool Rufus, got the same result. Can someone tell me how to create Windows 10 To Go with Windows 10 1809?
