    After using the USB Flash Drive to reinstall Windows 10


    After I used the USB flash drive to reinstall the Windows 10, my startup disk became the disk that I choose when I use the flash drive which was D', the previous startup disk was SSD and now become E'. So how can I set the SSD as the startup disk?

    :)

    How to create Windows 10 system image on a usb flash drive

    Thanks Maria:

    I made a system image on a USB flash drive using the tools available in Windows 10. I want to make this image bootable so that I can reinstall it on my computer from the same USB flash drive. Can I do this using the method you have suggested?

    If not, can you or anyone else tell me how to do this?

    Thanks again,

    Regis

    Installing windows off of a USB stick

    Step By Step from vista:
    From admin cmd prompt

    1. diskpart
    1a. list disk
    2. select disk 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    6. active
    7. format fs=fat32
    8. assign
    9. exit

    Copy Windows Vista's DVD ROM content to the Flash Drive

    xcopy d:\*.* /s/e/f e:\ (d being your vista cd and e being your usb stick)

    And that's it, boot off your usb disk

    Reinstall Windows 10 using a USB Flash Drive

    Hi Samuel,

    There are several ways to reinstall Windows 10 on your computer. However, if you replaced your motherboard,
    even with the same brand and model, it may no longer be activated. With this, you need to
    run the Activation troubleshooter after reinstalling Windows 10.

    Before you run the troubleshooter, we suggest downloading the Windows 10 media creation tool by clicking the
    Download tool now button in this
    article
    . You can find the steps on how to create the Windows 10 installation media using a
    USB flash drive.

    After the installation, follow the steps in this
    article
    to activate your Windows 10.

    Should you have further questions, please let us know.
