Lets say my computer won't boot or something similarly wrong that I can't fix. So - If I actually had a disaster and really needed to use the Rescue USB stick to resurrect an image of the System Drive. can I copy that in file explorer onto another PC and leave it there in case I need to copy and dump it onto another new USB Stick later if the 1st one dies and I can't access my computer with Macrium on it etc? Dump it onto either USB Stick or Ext HDD etc.Īnything else I need to know about using this - never actually resurrected an image - and especially a little tense about the idea of reviving an image for a System Drive?

If I create a Rescue USB 'resource' let's call it. If yes - same questions as above but for EXT HDD's? but I have questions.īTW this is for Win 11, but I assume everything will be pretty similar to Win 10 experiences?ĭoes the USB Stick need to be completely empty or is it ok to install the Rescue Media on it amongst other files as long as there is enough room for it?ĭo you need to Format it before you create the Rescue USB - and does it need to be formatted a specific way eg FAT X or NTFS etc?Īnd more interestingly - Can you install it on an External HDD instead (Eg 1TB WD Passport)? I am curious, I know people talk about Macrium Rescue Boot USB sticks etc.
