Okay. Several replies all in one go.
I'm using tailsboom. If you think I'm wrong? That's fine.
Tailsboom.
Either you're correct or I've been getting it badly wrong for seven years.
Tails is Sonic the hedgehog's friend.
Tailsboom is a Linux distribution. You can use Google to find it.

Keya23, just googled your spelling and google suggested "Tails boom" and in the first page of the search in both cases were videos for the tails sonic the hedgehog character, no mention of a linux distro by that name while googling just tails results in the second entry being for https://tails.net/ Tails OS. A linux Live USB system.
The mind boggles as to why a chromebook or linux only user would waste their time on a windows only giveaway site, maybe they enjoy tormenting themselves about what they cannot enjoy? It takes all sorts I guess!

I have tried this and it really works, although, you'll have to keep in mind that the drawback of running Windows from a USB device is extremely slow and unresponsive at times, you can always try installing it onto an external SSD drive which will give you a better performance. One last point to remember, an OS being run outside a set of physical hardware should not be considered as reliable and it may be proned to failure since it's all driven by software only.

Logically speaking, one year's licence would mean you can't create any new USB sticks after that, vs the stick(s) you did create would self-destruct after a year. And Hasleo is in my experience a top company; their Backup Suite is very good indeed.

Does the windows 10 activation follow the "portable" USB copy as win10 licensing is often tied to data in the systems bios and if one uses a win to go portably on other hardware the bios may not have a win10 license embedded in it...

Question - What happens after the 1 year license expires? I wouldn't want to be depending in this as a backup in case of Windows corruption/failure and find out it won't work?
Save | Cancel
Dennis Comito, it's Not a backup app. Once the license expires Hasleo software reverts to the trial version in my experience.
WinToUSB Pro can either do like Windows DISM [it likely uses DISM] to Apply a Windows image from the setup files to a USB stick/drive [basically expands the image (like a Zip file) to put the needed files in place] or clones an existing copy of Windows to a USB stick/drive, adding the necessary boot loader files [BCD]. When you boot to that USB drive Windows checks for needed drivers, downloads & installs them if they're available from Microsoft, and then starts Windows. If it does not find the needed drivers Windows may not start, depending on which drivers are missing. Windows can also get confused, e.g., if you run it on an AMD system, then run it on an Intel PC/laptop, it can reuse some of the earlier AMD drivers, & vice versa. Long story short, Windows To Go drives do not always work.

Dennis Comito, it will revert to Free/Trial version and you will need to buy a license to use it.

It sounds great. But I don't have a Windows computer (Chromebook).
But wouldn't it be simpler to simply put tailsboom on a usb stick?
Tailsboom will boot basically any computer.
My best friend has a Windows P.C. and to be honest it's rubbish. But on the VERY FEW occasions when I do need her computer I boot tailsboom from usb.
Her computer doesn't even have a CD player...
I get it, but I don't get it.
If you own a Windows computer just get rid of it.
Wipe it clean and put a Linux system on it.
And she actually has quite a nice computer. It's set up in French (so it's an AZERTY keyboard) which is annoying but she's 85 years old.

Keya23,
It’s called Tails. Just Tails.
Not tailsboot, and definitely not tailsboom.
Save | Cancel
Keya23, How does this relate to the program offered?
Save | Cancel
Keya23, This is about Windows not Linux, and newsflash, Linux support for a lot of hardware such as WiFi cards and printers? Pretty garbage. You have a built in Broadcom wifi? Don't work on Linux. HP Printer? Too bad, don't work or has half it's functionality gone. And I hope you don't like to play video games as 8 of the 10 most popular titles on steam including Fortnite and Battlefield? Yup nope.

Keya23, yuck who want's all their data owned by google? They've monetised everything they provide through data harvesting, including android devices and chromebooks.

Keya23, tails is a sensible option for a chromebook because google owns everything you do under chromeOS but tails is not a suitable replacement for a windows system as it's focussed on being as private and as "secure" as possible not as functional as possible, one can make windows relatively private, enough for normal use, you cannot do that with a chromebooks native operating system.

"I don't have a Windows computer (Chromebook)"
It **may** work with your Chromebook *depending* on it's components & if the BIOS will let you boot from a USB drive [very many Chromebooks are laptop PCs running the Chrome OS]. Both Windows & Linux will run on a USB stick/drive -- the only thing you have to make sure of is that the OS on the USB drive uses the same type or kind of booting as the device, i.e., UEFI or Legacy.
"Her computer doesn't even have a CD player..."
Optical Disc drives/players [CD, DVD, Blu-ray] are a bit rare nowadays. It can be a challenge finding a CD to buy.
"If you own a Windows computer just get rid of it.
Wipe it clean and put a Linux system on it."
If a Chromebook meets your needs that's all you need. Linux is the full-featured OS that Chrome is based on, and runs installed software as well as the web apps Chrome favors. The same goes for Windows, with the advantage being there's vastly more software available for Windows compared to Linux.

Keya23, Tails has a different user case.
One of the user case that I'm doing with this software is to backup my current PC into a bootable image, if my hard drive fails or my PC fails, I'm back at work without much downtime with my programs and files intact when I plugged the external drive into my PC or another PC.
