    The 'Windows to go' feature has me scratching my head.
    Assuming I have a suitable USB 3 flash drive and a USB 3 port on my PC I think I can create a bootable version of e.g. assume it'sWindows 10.

    1.Must have an ISO or install disk of W10?
    2.Is it required that the PC that I use to create the boot be 'My' pc running W10 or is any PC running any version of Windows OK?
    3.Does a 32 bit version run on a 64 bit PC and vice versa?
    4.If the pc that I wish to boot has a motherboard that doesn't support USB 3 before Windows loads, I must use and run Windows from a USB 2 port?
    5.I assume that if I use the flash drive to boot another PC, I need to have my serial number handy - and that's a one time deal?
    6.If I must use a USB 2 port, is it worth the effort and time in the first place.

    It seems that is all it does.
    Unless you are running 'Enterprise', you have an unactivated edition of Windows running on another PC.
