Hi
I downloaded this program and activated it. I had to clean install my Win7 Pro and began adding all my programs with their relevant keys.
However this one responded with key being disabled.
Can you help.

I installed this app on my old XP laptop - no probs registering etc.
So now I can create portable win7 plus usb sticks - nice.
Save | Cancel
ray, not from an XP system you can't! You can use the top two buttons functionality the Physical To USB functionality requires the HOST OS to be windows 7 or above NOT XP. And even if it was a Windows 7 or above host you cannot buy USB "sticks" big enough to make a working or useful windows to go environment. You might be able to squeeze it into a 128G flash stick but yould be on a cruise for bruise as flash sticks fail catastrophically far sooner than proper SSD drives do, due to their less sophsticated controller chips not doing wear leveling or transparent ECC and by not having sufficient heat dissipation they often cook themselves on prolonged heavy use!

Windows OS require activation.
It cannot be put on numerous computers from 1 single copy of the OS.
If Microsoft did not make such WintoUSB feature possible in their OS, there must be a reason. Which may be anti-piracy related or profit oriented.
Whatever it is, use with caution because it may affect your existing Windows OS that you have already installed and activated.

I have win 10 and 7 (=dual system) running on the same HDD. I would like to separate windows 7 from that hard drive and run it on an external USB drive instead, and use the existing hard drive solely for running windows 10 on it.
Will this program allow me to do that?

Newbie question: I'm not sure what the purpose of this program is. Is it meant to be used when my computer breaks and won't boot up? Or is it for using Windows on another computer (and if so, why would I need to do this)? Or both?
Save | Cancel
zipzap, The windows to go portion of this program is intended to make your customised windows environment portable ona USB drive, albeit a Magnetic USB drive or better still a SSD USB drive so you can take your desktop and transferable programs with you. It's an enhancement to the old concept of a WinPE boot drive and the concept of portable programs on a thumb drive. The reason this is better than what Microsoft provides is it opens up Non-enterprise and Windows 7 to the possibility of creating a windows to go environment when Microsoft standard restrictions limit the function to Windows 8 Enterprise or newer.
Save | Cancel
Thanks for the explanation, TK!
So it's not meant to be used as a "rescue disk" when my computer crashes and won't boot up?
Save | Cancel
zipzap, correct windows to go as designed by Microsoft is NOT intended as a rescue system since it is supposed to block access to the hosts hardwares local drives to ensure that there is no possibility of data leakage from the to go workspace onto the host fixed drives that will be left behind. As such we could not effect a repair to a broken host windows operating system. To create an offline windows repair system it is intended to be built from a WinPE environment with custom tools added like data recovery, boot failure repair and chkdsk and partition managment and offline system restore functionality. And not full blown workstation programs like office programs and email programs etc. Different products for different purposes.

So can this offering be saved to flash drive to enable someone else's Operating Sys to be copied to USB, too?
In other words would this enable me to run a copy of W10 or W8 on my W7 System?
Is the offering given away on here, portable, just as my Ops sys would be?
Not totally tech savvy when it comes to this kind of depth.

Downloaded and installed easily on Windows 10, 64 bit Pro. I've tried a couple times with Rufus and Windows to go and it 'seemed to be going good until I tried to use my flash dive. I feel it this time....

John M, may I ask what brand of Flash Drive did you use? I have found SandDisk flash drives seem to have problems with all these kinds of programs.
I am already a paid registered user of WinToUSB and WinToHDD (same company) and it doesn't seem to like SanDisk flash drives.
Plus I am also a paid registered user of Novicorp WinToFlash Professional and it too has problems with SanDisk flash drives.
Yet I have tried both these programs with other branded flash drives that I own such as A-RAM, Kingston and Lexar and all these flash drives worked without any issues with the above programs.
I have tried a number of things like reformatting them and so on but still they will not work with either of these programs. So something must be different about them compared to the other flash drives that work? But I am unsure at this stage what it is.
Save | Cancel
Hi Erica, thanks for your reply. I checked my flash drives and the two I labeled were 8 GB SandDisk drives. I completed all the Rufus steps but when I insert both of them,, nothing happens. I can open them and see the files but I'm not sure what to do with them.
I have a Kingston 32 GB Data Traveler and another SandDisk 32 GB FD but I thought it might be to big and a waste of space if you happen to see this.
Thanks for your thoughts and thanks to our giveawayoftheday.com mods for passing them on.
Save | Cancel
Sorry Erica, I forgot to say, windows to go?? won't accept any of my flash drives
Save | Cancel
John M, no worries and your welcome.
You could always try backing up your Kingston flash drive and then trying that one?
Also if you are using USB 3 ports try USB 2 to see if that makes a difference?
The only other thing I can think of is try downloading a free copy of Novicorp WinToFlash Lite and see how you go with that.

Erica, Thanks again, I like all three of those ideas.
Save | Cancel
John M, your flash drives need to be at least as large as the used space in the host system summary on pressing Physical To USB button. MOST USB flash thumb drives are tooooooo small for normal working windows environments. The USB drive needs to be at worst a good sized magnetic hard drive in a caddy or ideally a good sized SSD drive in a caddy. anything less should be expected to fail, you can't fit a pint of beer into a cup the shape of a straw... (an analogy for a USB flash thumb drive far slower than a hard drive whether it be magnetic or SSD and far smaller than what you are trying to squeeze into it!)

I have Panda Protection, which says this is a Potentially Unwanted Program, and immediately quarantines the exe when you try to run it.
Some may need to temporarily disable their antivirus in order to install.
Looks like a very useful giveaway though. Thanks!
Save | Cancel
Phil Francis, panda suspects the programs installer is a downloader assistant but it is not, it makes no attempt to access the internet during the installation here. You should really change pandas default action to ASK in the case of PUP suspicions so YOU can decide if the program is unwanted or not, (if possible) remember it's "potentially unwanted" NOT malicious or absolutely never wanted...

I'm actually lost. I open my ISO file on the C:/ drive, then choose my 3 terabyte USB drive for the destination. It tells me I have to check the boot drive and the only 2 drives listed is the USB drive. It wants me to check the boot drive, but I can't because the only two drives listed are my USB drive. I tried checking the radio button, which is only available on the second USB drive and the Next button stays gray. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help you can give. There are a lot of question under comments, and I wish the developer would answer some of them. You know they're checking the comments. Please developer, help with our questions.
Save | Cancel
reghakr, might this be due to your USB drive being 3TB? try 2TB or less, it will probably work.
Save | Cancel
reghakr, The problem might be that 3 terabyte flash drives don't actually exist. Sure, there are 2 tb flash drives on Amazon that are cheap, but those aren't actual 2 tb flash drives as a 2 tb flash drive would be very costly to purchase. Might want to download a program that can test to see if your flash drive is legit.

bhahbh,
Thanks man, I understand,

Rebeldawg,
thanks, there is a difference between a flash drive and my 3 terabyte drive. the terabyte drive is either USB2a or 3.0.
Save | Cancel
Rebeldawg, Where did the OP say their 3TB drive was a "Flash" drive? All Flash memory sticks puporting to be 256G bytes or more priced at less than $0.25 per gigabyte are fakes, using hacked firmware to spoof report the fake size to the host machines drivers. But there are 2TByte SSD and I believe at least one brand of 4Tbyte SSD flash hard drives but they are expensive. And would take quite a while to even test to ensure they are genuine products fully populated with the correct flash memory chips.
Also the OP said the program could only see the the USB drive and NOT the systems boot drive, so the problem was with the systems built-in drive recognition and NOT the 3TB USB drive.

reghakr, Sorry about that, I misread your comment earlier and mistook it as a usb flash drive instead of a usb hard drive.

Does this tool also copy/transfer to an external drive ALL the applications installed under Windows on a given PC?
Save | Cancel
I am going to assume that as I can clone my Op Sys to a USB that the portable version will be a bare bones copy of my existing system (W7 64 in my case)
Would I not then be able to boot up from USB and use that as a fault finding tool?
Would that not be the better option than re-booting and choosing the 'Boot without drivers' selection from Windows?
Save | Cancel
not for XP?
Save | Cancel
dotkgc, I noticed that too. XP was a good OS. The problem is that many softwares such as browsers and security suites don't work with XP anymore.
Save | Cancel
dotkgc, The problem for XP is it uses a completely different booting procedure and has nothing in common with the windows to go production paradigm, one would have to re-invent XP and the to go system to make it work which would be seriously unprofitable even with 100million remaining users. Sorry.
Create your own custom BartPE boot environment if you are desperate for some kind of portable offline XP operating system.

TK,
Hi TK .
In the description of the product we see :
System Requirements:
Windows 2000/7/8/8.1/10
So , I believe that dotkgc wonders why Windows 2000
and NOT Windows XP ?
I think that the same thing happened with the yesterdays
giveaway .
I would love to know why .
Save | Cancel
JEDIGEG, yes I saw that after posting my comment, but would like to point out that the WinToUSB "Physical to USB" operation only works on Windows 7 and above so does not work on Windows 2000, XP or even Vista... the only functions that work on Vista and presumably earlier are the creation of USB or CD windows Installation media which is of course not as exciting.
For the interesting bit we should really consider this as only fully compatible with Windows 7 and above, whilst it may install on earlier versions of windows it is NOT fully functional on them.
Save | Cancel
JEDIGEG,
WELL you got to my point before I did.........with still over 100 MILLION XP users, and the fact I'll NEVER go up to the MORONIC MS choices, it would seem that at least some software gurus would keep XP in mind.
And if it doe MS2000, WHY not XP.?
IF I ever have to change........it WON'T be to MS Crap.
Likely MAC IF.........

iwontell, Hi .
I agree with your comment .
I will NEVER go to Windows 10 .
I was thinking to upgrade to Windows 7 ,
but then I've read that they are planning
to stop supporting it real soon .
Also I've read to many articles on how
invasive the MS updates are in order to
bring Win 7 "closer" to Win 10 , WITHOUT
asking for the user permission .
So , thanks but NO thanks ...
I am seriously considering to take the
UBUNTU way .

I'd like to know how the WtoG O/S is licensed, as I assume you'll need a Windows license for it and the one that came with your computer doesn't count (assuming you don't have a Windows Enterprise edition), or are you just relying on the free trial period?
Save | Cancel
JohnL, on the same single seat license model the host single user operating system is licensed as I'd presume.
Save | Cancel
TK, do I assume you're saying you'd need a separate license for it, as that's what I suspect except it isn't something Microsoft support, so who knows. You certainly can't, for example, make a VM out of your Win10 desktop without getting another license. See:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/Useterms/Retail/Windows/10/UseTerms_Retail_Windows_10_English.htm
License is just for one instance...
Note Windows Enterprise users are in a better position as if you have software assurance you should be okay, even for your home computer, but wouldn't need this software.

JohnL, That's an interesting thread.... Not having a spare HD in a USB enclosure to try and build a to go BYOD work space I cannot test it and I suspect the way I have windows 10 configured it would not be compatible with the to go build process but hope to try at some point but I suspect it's licensing requirements and tests are quite lax not being tied to a specific hardware configuration... I'd suspect it was really done in the same manner as a WinPE environment (No activation requirement at all) but they don't want to publicise it as then everyone would install a non-activated Enterprise edition of windows 10 and create a to go workspace and use that in place of buying any real licenses.

Eddie, please be aware that if you use a Live CD based upon XP like Hirens or BartPE and you make ANY changes to that harddrive and it's host windows is Vista or above and WAS protected by Vistas or above System Restore that the XP based PE is unaware of Vista and above Volume Shadowcopy Service protection and will in fact corrupt the VSS store making system restore at best unworkable and at worst apparently functional but capable of corrupting the drives data in a near random manner. The similar happens when using a linux LiveCD except the Linux LiveCD will not touch the VSS store but will let you change the drive making the System Restore system inconsistent.
Save | Cancel
TK, Sorry I don' t understand the technical of your comment , but I am using this method for backup for a long time , now for win7 ( bypassing the o.s.) with no trouble .
Save | Cancel
Eddie, I am replying to the comment on using Hirens or BartPE which are XP based PE enviroments to access a win vista or above computer system NOT your comment about using Norton Ghost to clone backup a system. Also if you are using Norton Ghost it is likely that you do not also use System Restore as recovery system so in which case you would not notice any problems.

I would like to know in what way this is different from the existing Microsft tool. https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/windows-usb-dvd-download-tool
Save | Cancel
Doc, this tool is for creating a Windows To Go boot drive, not a setup drive, like that Microsoft tool.
As far as I know, Microsoft doesn't make a tool to do this: you just have to manually set it all up.
(I haven't tried this tool, yet, but I've set up Windows To Go, manually, before so I can see why this would be handy.)
Save | Cancel
Doc, As afr as I understand it... Microsoft restricts authorized windows to go creation to Windows 8 Enterprise and above and that download you link to does not mention windows to go as it's doing something different.
Allegedly this tool opens up windows to go production to a whole new range of windows versions and editions.
