Windows 10 offers users the ability to create a system repair USB drive, which can be invaluable when troubleshooting and restoring your computer. While Windows traditionally offered the option to create a system repair disc using a CD or DVD, many modern computers lack optical drives. Fortunately, you can now create a system repair USB drive instead.
To create a system repair USB drive for Windows 10, follow these steps:
Insert a USB flash drive with at least 16GB of storage into your computer.
Type “Create a recovery drive” in the Windows search bar and select the option when it appears.
In the Recovery Drive wizard, check the box that says “Back up system files to the recovery drive” and click Next.
Select your USB drive from the list and click Next.
Click Create to begin the process. Note that this will erase all data on the USB drive.
Wait for the process to complete, which may take 15-30 minutes depending on your system.
Once finished, you’ll have a bootable USB drive that can help you troubleshoot and repair Windows 10 if issues arise.
To use your newly created system repair USB drive:
Restart your computer and boot from the USB drive (you may need to change boot order in BIOS).
Choose your keyboard layout when prompted.
Select “Troubleshoot” from the options presented.
You’ll now have access to various recovery tools, including System Restore, Startup Repair, and Command Prompt.
Having a system repair USB drive offers several advantages:
• Portability: Easy to carry and use on multiple computers
• Accessibility: Useful when Windows won’t boot normally
• Versatility: Provides access to various recovery tools
• Convenience: No need for an optical drive
By creating a system repair USB drive, you’re preparing yourself for potential future issues and ensuring you have the tools necessary to get your Windows 10 system back up and running.
