WinToUSB 9.9.0 by Hasleo Software

WinToUSB is a free software that enables you to install and run the Windows operating system directly from a USB drive, whether a hard disk or flash-based, using an ISO image or CD and DVD drives as your installation source.

WinToUSB also supports bootable WinPE USB drives. It can transfer WinPE content to a USB drive and make it bootable.

WinToUSB also offers the flexibility to boot on multiple computers. Upon the first connection, it automatically detects system hardware and then downloads and installs the necessary drivers. Consequently, on subsequent connections to the same PC, it will instantly identify the proper tools.

Since not all software supports running on such an operating system, it should be tested beforehand. This helps avoid difficulties later when you may rely on that specific utility.
