When downloaded from a reputable source, WinToUSB is a safe program that many people use to install WinPE/Windows onto external hard drives. You can use any edition of Windows 10/8/7 and Windows Server 2019/2016/2012/2010 to create a Windows To Go USB drive.

What’s great about WinToUSB is that you don’t need to install WAIK (Windows Automated Installation Kit) or WADK (Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit). You simply need to copy it onto your removable drive and insert it into any computer. It is a simple way to keep the Windows installer on an external source so you can have it with you at all times. Microsoft discontinued the development of Windows To Go in 2019 and as of May 2020, it is no longer available in Windows 10 (version 2004).Īs well as creating an imaged version of Windows, WinToUSB is useful if you want to run Windows on a non-Windows computer (such as a Mac) or create a testing environment to run diagnostics. It was developed to allow enterprise administrators to provide users with an imaged version of Windows that reflects the corporate desktop. Windows To Go is a feature in Windows 8 Enterprise, Windows 8.1 Enterprise, Windows 10 Enterprise, and Windows 10 Education.
