    How to install a Windows-specific program onto a USB drive


    Hello, and thank you in advance.
    I have two computers, an organization-managed Dell Latitude 3300 and a MacBook Air, the former using Windows 10 and the latter running on, of course, OSX. Installation of programs is prohibited onto the PC, however I'd like to install and run a Windows-specific program. Is there any way that I could download the program on the mac, install it on a USB drive and run it on Windows? I suppose my other option is just to download the installer onto my PC, then install it onto the hard drive and run it from Windows. If either of those would work, I would really appreciate it if anybody could tell me how because most of my computer experience is with OSX and Linux.

    :)

    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

    How to install a Windows-specific program onto a USB drive

    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!
