Windows 10: WintoUSB users - 1809 update won't install even cloning system

Hi folks

Those of you making WindowstoGo using Wintousb software will be disappointed by this release

1) you can't create it via the install windows with the ISO or wim images
2) clone current system fails on boot.
3)macrium fix windows boot problems (which normally is excellent) doesn't fix it either

Hopefully wintousb will be updated soon

(I like Wintousb on an external SSD as I can have a totally separate language version of Office and Windows on it rather than keep messing about changing languages on several PC's (provided you've got a digital license the wintousb will boot activated from different machines.- At least it used to until 1809 !!).

Cheers

Moving to SSD. Clone or not to clone?

I kinda agree with you, but on a wholr, do not. While I have done things a bit differently than this specific situation, by installing Windows directly to the SSD, and cloning after, my testing shows that there are no issues doing this, very little that can go wrong, provided your system is stable.

There are certain features that must be disabled in this situation, like auto defrag and such, but even with a fresh install to the SSD, you need to take steps to ensure that you SSD performs properly, regardless of how the data got there.

Arming yourself with a bit of knowledge can go a long way.

Installing the latest chipset driver, and the RST Tools, will ensure optimal performance of the SSD. but rather than taking my advice, I suggest the OP takes a look here:

Keep in mind, also, Digibucc, that many retail drives include software and such that very specifically is to be used to ttranser the OS from an existing mechanical drive to an SSD, and if there really was alot fo issues stemming from the cloning process, they would not have packages like that, simply to eliminate tech support costs. While not the optimal option, cloning is NOT a bad thing, as long as you take the nessecary steps.
