Can I make a bootable windows drive on a laptop for a pc

[tommeh]

Hi all,

Can I make a bootable windows USB for my PC on my friends laptop?

The main issue I had in mind was that this windows version (asus) has a lot of bloatware installed on it from the box.
Will that also transfer to my PC if i use it?

Do you guys have any other recommendations for making a bootable USB when my PC is not available?

Thank you.

You can created a new windows install USB, and install a fresh copy of Windows.

I could be wrong but I don't think you can boot your OS on your friends laptop using a USB drive. You can make a bootable drive for loading an OS or doing repairs.
