      i dont know if you can but i can say that even if you could, you shouldn't. if you were able to do this and then used your hard drive to boot up into your mobile windows edition on some random library or school computer, then left, said computer wouldnt boot as it would be looking for your hard drive instead of its internal one. It'd be a hassle for IT as other people dont always know how to boot into different hard drives

    Because the Windows site says that the official Windows To Go tool support ended at the 2004 build (and indeed, I had a previous USB installation which became stuck exactly before the 2004 build)

      Actually no it's NOT!
      I've checked 4 times now, and there is no link anywhere to whatever that software was.
      You have links to your blog, PDF element, wondershare filmora, your site on medium, a link to start your own TH-cam channel, free courses on word press, WP rocket, Domain name hosting, & word press themes.
      But no link to that software like you said in your video & just told me, so stop lying acting like I'm blind and crazy. Ok.
      Besides I paused your video and looked at the link you pasted and just typed that in instead since you couldn't be bothered to put the link in the video description like you said you would, and it is a trial program that doesn't support the use of windows 10 pro which is what I have.

      @@gkennedy0969 We apologize if our previous response came across as offensive.
      However, the blog URL that was mentioned in the video actually contains all the necessary links (if you scroll a little). We include the blog links in our videos because there are often multiple links to share, and it's more convenient to have them all in one place on our website.
      Regarding the software, we have successfully used it for the home edition of both Windows 10 and 11 without any issues. However, we will certainly look for the Pro version of Windows as you mentioned. Possibly the software may not be available for free on the Pro version as you have tried, but we'll test it out too and as well see if there are any alternatives for Pro. We apologize if there was any confusion or inconvenience caused.
      Thank you.
