About WinToUSB

WinToUSB installs and runs a full copy of Windows 11, 10, 8 or 7 from a USB flash drive, external hard drive or Thunderbolt drive. It can build that portable system from an ISO, WIM, ESD, SWM or VHD(X) file, a DVD or a Hasleo Backup Suite image, or clone the running Windows to the external drive.

It can also create bootable WinPE or Windows installation USB drives, download Windows ISO files, and protect a portable system with BitLocker. It supports GPT/UEFI and x64, x86 and ARM64 editions. Some features require the paid upgrade.
