Copying data from PC to UHS chip

Hi Theodore,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while transferring data to UHS chip from the PC.



Since you are trying to Burn the data, you will only receive CD/DVD option, because Burn option is used to transfer data through an optical drive.



I suggest you try the steps mentioned below to copy the data to UHS chip.

1. Insert the UHS chip to the PC, in case you are using a desktop you may need to use a card reader.
   
2. Now go to the location of the data you want to transfer.
   
3. Select the files by clicking on it. If you have multiple files, press and hold the
   Ctrl key and then click on each file to select them.
   
4. Now press Ctrl + C key to copy the files.
   
5. Now press Windows + E key to open
   file explorer.
   
6. On the left hand pane click on the
   UHS chip to open it.
   
7. Now press Ctrl + V to paste the files.
   

Hope it helps.

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!

 

Error: Insert USB, while trying to install Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community and being a part of Windows 10.

I understand the inconvenience caused to you in installing Windows 10 on your device. Do not worry we will help you with this issue.

Provide us additional information to understand the issue and assist you better:

• Are referring to upgrade to Windows 10 from previous operating system?
• If so, which is the base operating system installed previously on your device?

As a workaround try the below and check if it helps.

Step 1: Try to remove all the external devices except mouse and keyboard, hard reboot the device and check with the status of this issue.

Step 2: I suggest you to use different USB stick, download a fresh copy of Windows 10 ISO file on the new USB drive, try to install Windows 10 and check if it helps. This will let us know if the issue is with USB drive/ ISO file copied.

If the issue still persists,

Step 3: I suggest you to download Windows 10 ISO file, create an media creation tool on CD/DVD drive and check if you are able to install Windows 10.

Refer to the below article by Andre Da Costa and check if it helps.
