redneck Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I installed windows 10 on a 2.5 laptop hard drive on the Dell Laptop. activated then removed the drive from laptop !!! install the drive into a usb portable hard drive case. hit f12 at boot select usb boot > good to go ! will not update windows 10 OS, just defender and apps. I use it for personal stuff ,like banking with Quicken. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/324654-windows-10-to-go-usb/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 That's something that I want to know more. It's like Ubuntu Live? 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/324654-windows-10-to-go-usb/#findComment-2449118 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdevs Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 That's something that I want to know more. It's like Ubuntu Live? look here: https://rufus.akeo.ie with Rufus you can create Windows 8/10 USB install disk with MBR or GPT partition scheme for old (BIOS) or new (UEFI) bootable disks and there is a nice feature to create Windows to Go USB disk. I'm using it for all sort of purposes like data recovery or troubleshooting PCs. As @DSOS mentioned above the best performance will be achieved using a SSD external drive or a High Speed USB 3.0 flash drive. I usually use SanDisk Ultra Flair and it works really fine with both macOS and Windows it has a 130 MB/s read performance. Cheers. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/324654-windows-10-to-go-usb/#findComment-2449232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
