Hi there @cereberus

works a treat -- got a multi activation version of W10 so no prpbs with activating it -- runs fine from ssd connected to pc via sata-->usb3 connector. Boots fine too.

Changed now to running a Windows Insider build on it -- no activation problems

great idea -- pity Ms seems to hide this Windows to go thing. It's great also if you want different language for office or even Windows itself etc say and can't install on a work computer -

cheers

Wintousb is not exactly the same as Window To Go. WTG has additional protection so that if you accidentally remove the usb drive for a short period and reinsert it, it does not crash, but wintousb does not have that protection i.e if you accidentally remove the usb drive it will crash immediately.

Could please someone recommend such a tool which is capable to store ISO files bigger then 4GB and boot in UEFI mode?

I want to install the newest Windows 10 b1909 in UEFI-Mode, but I like to use my 128GB USB stick with several editions and version builds, prefererred is NTFS.

YUMI seems to have this FAT32 restriction for UEFI.

Supported distributions are limited, and your USB drive must be Fat32 formatted to support booting in UEFI mode. (Only BIOS mode will work with NTFS formatted drives).

Do you know such a tool?
Easy2Boot would be a candidate, but it seems to be overly complicated at first sight.

You could always shrink the Fat32 partition then create a second partition with ExFat or ntfs format to store files larger than the Fat32 4GB limit.

I use WinSetupFromUSB, as posted above (it was updated last year). I always format the UFD with FAT32, but there is an option to format it with NTFS, which I haven´t used. You could just try.
