    OK. I'll buy a 64 GB USB and try again.

    I don't think that will help with Windows 10 built in system imaging. It appears as if Windows 10 system imaging excludes USB flash drives. But it will work with Macrium Reflect Free. In fact, what I have done in the past is use a 64 GB flash drive to make a Macrium Reflect Free rescue USB. Then store the image right onto the same flash drive.

    No need to buy a new stick. Windows imaging does not work with sticks.

    LOL - Navy must have been typing at the same time.

    OK. Thank you to both of you.

    So much for using an USB flash drive.

    FWIW-

    I just ran a test using a USB 3.0 / FAT32 and it seemed to work fine.

    ................ USB 3.0 / FAT32 .....................
    You are doing FILE backup. Yes ?

    I was asking about system Image backup which requires NTFS format.

    Actually, I'm not 100% certain.

    I just launched Windows Back-up & Restore, changed the settings and pointed it to the flash drive. I was assuming it was an image.

    On that same FAT32 flash drive, I do routinely make image back ups using both AOMEI and Macrium, so it does seem to work fine in other formats.

    Yes, I guess we were. Apologies, but I'm not too familiar with Windows Imaging.

    This I'm not so sure about, unless I'm missing something again. As mentioned, I routinely make both AOMEI and Macrium back ups on my FAT32 flash drive.

    Windows Image Backup will create a System Image Backup on a thumb drive as per @b1rd's link but you won't be able to restore from it.

    I don't see USB Drive as an option. You chose hard drive.
