Windows 10: How can I use a bootable USB to repair keeping all of my files, data, pictures, etc my laptop?

Recently, when I was trying to reset and update my HP laptop, my laptop, refuses to go back to my login screen, homepage, whatever the case may be, to get back onto my projects I was working on. I would try turning it back off and on, but there would be a constant loop that is just never ending, a loop showing the HP logo and sometimes would have a statement saying “preparing automatic repair.” most times where I would be patient. It would then show me a blue screen with the “ : “ face let me know how my device ran into a problem and needs to restart and they’ll restart it for me.Long story s

Multi-bootable USB

Hey guys from TPU, couldn't find any specific thread pertaining to the question asked on title. As mentioned, I'm trying to create a bootable USB, but with many specifics boots available.

I've been trying to create one with multiple boot device including one that enables me to run Windows 10 directly on the USB Thumb Drive but to no avail.

The list of bootable images i'm trying to create are

1. Windows 10 (A full OS running from thumb drive)
2. Windows 10 ISO (Bootable disk image for fresh install)
3. MemTest86+

Have tried YUMI or UUI from the website USB PenDrive Linux but as this is my first time, i don't know how am i screwing up or am doing it right.. Anyone got a rough idea on a step by step guide? Thanks!

 

Bootable Vista Installer

I have a friend who has a Vista Home Premium key (from the bottom of his laptop) and his HDD crapped out so he ordered a new one. His repair disks didn't work and neither of us have CD's with a large enough capacity to store the files we 'found' on the interwebz, so I'm trying to install it from a bootable USB.

I got up to the step where I successfully turned the USB into an active partition, but I ran into a problem the moment I needed to access the boot sector.

Can someone kindly walk me through the steps?

 

Bootable USB

For me it worked when making it really bootable with reformat of the cmd boot data. So it did not work just putting files on. And you have to have good USB flash , those cheap ones usually aren't recommended AFAIK.
