Windows 7 Win 8 to thumb drive

Hello Peter, Yes, you can install Windows 8 on a flash drive for free. Here's how you can do it: 1. Download Windows 8: You can download the Windows 8 ISO file from Microsoft's website or other trusted sources. 2. Create a Bootable USB Drive: You will need a USB flash drive with sufficient storage capacity (at least 8GB). Use a tool like Rufus or the Windows USB/DVD Download Tool to create a bootable USB drive with the Windows 8 ISO file. 3. Install Windows 8 on the USB Drive: During the installation process, make sure to select the USB drive as the destination for the installation. This way, Windows 8 will be installed on the USB drive instead of your PC's hard drive. 4. Boot from the USB Drive: Once the installation is complete, you can boot your computer from the USB drive to run Windows 8 without affecting the existing operating system on your PC. By installing Windows 8 on a flash drive, you can use it on any compatible computer by simply booting from the USB drive. This way, it won't interfere with the operating system already installed on the computer. If you need any further assistance with the installation process, feel free to ask!
