WinToFlash performs an amazing task: it extracts the contents of a Windows installation and transfers them to a bootable USB drive. It's safe to say that this extends the lifespan of your Windows installation, since CDs are very fragile, while USB flash drives offer greater flexibility.
Supports most versions of Windows
It is compatible with Windows XP/2003/Vista/2008/7/8/10 in all editions: Home, Professional, Media Center, Ultimate, etc.
You need a formatted USB flash drive (you can do this from the application) and the Windows CD/DVD.
Provides an assistant to help you
WinToFlash is very easy to use and requires no installation. Simply run the executable file and configure it using the first-time setup wizard in the user interface.
Manage a comprehensive set of parameters
More advanced options allow you to perform more complex tasks, such as creating an emergency bootloader, a bootable MS-DOS drive, or erasing a disk.
In conclusion
Overall, WinToFlash appears to be a breakthrough in a market where Windows installations are primarily performed from a CD/DVD drive. It minimizes the chances of losing important data, making Windows installations last a lifetime. Furthermore, it supports multiboot, meaning you can add as many bootable devices to your USB drive as you deem necessary.
