    How do i make a VHD Bootable


    Hi, i have a Hyper-V Virtual machine and i would like to make it bootable and burning the VHD to a external ssd, then being able to boot off of it to remove the virtualization layer. the ssd is 120gb and the image only takes up 50gb at the moment, i think in Hyper-V the drive is 500gb if that is a issue, does anyone know of any software or cmd/powershell commands to try this, i have tried copying the files from the VHD but it did not work for some reason. any help would be great.

    :)

    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!
