Windows 10: Using my Win10 USB instead of the Macrium rescue media?

Win10pro 1909

Could I use my Windows 10 installation USB instead of making a making a Macrium rescue media USB?
In other words, can I point to the Macrium system image from my Win10 USB?

Also, using Macrium, can I create a system image on a USB drive? What should it be formatted to... FAT32 or NTFS?

Thanks

Macrium Rescue Media for 2 Computers on same USB

I have two computers running Windows 10 x 64 Build 1909:

• Desktop
• MacBook Bootcamp

The desktop is imaged using Macrium, with rescue media on a bootable USB thumbdrive.

I also want to image the Windows 10 installation on the MacBook using Macrium, but would ideally like to use the same rescue USB thumbdrive.

Is this possible? What is the best method to achieve this?

No - they are two completely different things. It is, however, possible I believe to make a multiboot USB flash drive or disk.

E.g.

Yes- indeed from some points of view it is better to store images on removable drives (powered down, removed and stored- fire,theft, flood, greater likelihood of not being infected by a virus...)
