In order to ensure that the created USB drive can start normally on the UEFI computer, there must be a FAT32 partition on the USB drive and the capacity of the FAT32 partition should not exceed 32GB. You can create partitions on the unallocated space on this USB drive to use the full space, or use third-party software to create the emergency disk, such as Hasleo WinToUSB.My apologies...I am a newbie here and just starting to check out/experiment with the Backup Suite...and I am somewhat confused by the above. To clarify, if I may:
1. by 'external drive' you are referring to HDD/SSD that are connected to the computer in question via USB/eSATA/Etc., rather than USB sticks?
2. the USB stick to be used as the Emergency Disk needs to be a minimum of 32Gb + however much is required for the WINPE/Etc. files?
3. if 2. above is correct then what is the MINIMUM size USB stick that should be used as the basis for an Emergency Disk?
Finally, when I check out the user guide section "How to create a bootable WinPE media with Hasleo Backup Suite?" there is no mention of any of this in terms of (i) the need for the FAT32 partition, the implied 'minimum' stick size requirement or the fact that the recovery files are hidden (which adds to the confusion of the newbie)
Thanks in advance for your patience, and am more than happy to be corrected should I have gotten the wrong end of the stickĀ (no pun intended) re. any of the above.
