Generally, Windows To Go allows you to copy an installed operating system to a portable USB drive, but with certain prerequisites, such as having a Windows Enterprise edition, a certified USB drive, and actually another USB 3.0 hardware on your computer.
Does this mean you can't use the Windows To Go USB on a computer with a non-Enterprise edition? What if you don't have a certified USB drive available? Can you still create your own portable USB drive with any operating system?
When you lose access to the built-in application, you can try some third-party alternatives. With tools like OS2Go, a Windows To Go alternative, you can create a Windows To Go USB for Windows 11/10/8/7 without needing the Enterprise edition.
It's a sleek and lightweight utility designed to assist Windows users in creating a portable Windows USB drive. Developed by the well-reputed technology company, Tools, you might be familiar with some of their flagship products such as Data Recovery Wizard, Partition Master, Todo Backup, and Todo PCTrans, among others.
OS2Go is now fully compatible with Windows 11, the latest Microsoft operating system. Regardless of which version or edition of Windows you are running on your machine, or which USB devices you are using, you can easily transfer the Windows OS to a USB drive without any additional effort.
In addition to the ability to create a Windows To Go USB on non-enterprise edition computers, OS2Go can impress you in various scenarios.
Step 1. Install OS2Go on your Windows computer, which will show the used space on your system drive. Insert a USB drive with a capacity larger than the used space on your system drive. Select the target USB drive and click Next to proceed.
Step 2. OS2Go will warn you that the following action will erase all data on your drive. Make sure you've backed up all important data. Click Continue to proceed.
Step 3. Adjust disk layout. The default disk layout on the target drive will be identical to the source drive. You can also customize the layout to suit your needs. Check the option if you're using an SSD as the Windows boot drive. Then, click Proceed.
Step 4. OS2Go will then begin creating the portable USB drive. This process may take some time, depending on your operating system and network conditions. Once the progress reaches 100%, the USB drive will be bootable.
Step 5. Insert the portable Windows USB and start your computer. Press the necessary key (F2, DEL, F10, etc.) to access the BIOS. Select to boot from the USB drive.
Note: Please ensure that the boot mode (either UEFI or Legacy) of the portable USB and your target computer are identical; otherwise, booting may not be possible.
