WinPE as boot drive

I've been using UltraISO to make the USB drive a startup disk, which is inherently easy to use, but there are some unpleasant places

1. To reformat the USB flash drive every time,

WinPE itself is not big, only need hundreds of trillion space, once the U disk in use, obviously have enough space, but each use to migrate a U disk.

1. Only FAT32 partitions can be used.

Once the USB flash drive has been used once, often also need to format it to NTFS to continue to use, if you forget, there is a copy larger than 4G file error, you need to migrate a USB flash drive again, format.

1. As an emergency disk, you need a USB flash drive.

Originally intended to do a rescue disk for a long-term storage for a rainy time, but WinPE originally only hundreds of trillion space, occupy a 32G u disk is too wasteful.

Tool: Diskgenius

1. First, a new partition to see the size of the PE file, the general 512M is enough.

Diskgenius can divide a new partition without damage, and it is fast. If you are not comfortable, we recommend backing up the files first.

?

1. The new partition is formatted, the Diskgenius is automatically made, and the new partition can be accessed in the File Manager.

The new partition can also be NTFS partitioned, and can be formatted as FAT32 if you are concerned that the motherboard is not recognized.

?

1. Activates the partition so that it can be started as a system

The NTFS word below the file system changes to red

?

1. Load the WinPE ISO image and copy all of its files to this partition

Now it's done. The loading system is set to USB boot, and the same as when booting with a USB stick.

After doing this, a slightly uncomfortable place is that after inserting a USB stick, there will be a small partition, usually no use. It's kind of an eyesore.

????

At this point we can hide it from the file manager with Diskgenius's "Hide Current Partition" function, and it will not affect its booting as a system disk. It is very comfortable to use at this time. This way, one swoop solves all the problems before, just need to divide the USB stick into about 0.5G space, you can do a WinPE startup disk for a long time to use. Does not affect the daily function of u disk.

This program can also be used for mobile hard disk, because the mobile hard disk read and write faster, more convenient to use.
