I ran Windows 11 from an SD card, and it's faster than you'd think
Source ↗ 👁 0 💬 0
Earlier this year, I tried running a full Windows installation from a flash drive, and it worked. That got me thinking, if I can run Windows from a flash drive, shouldn't it work with an SD card too? Microsoft had a "Windows To Go" feature that allowed this kind of setup, but it was discontinued in 2019. Since then, anyone who wants to run a portable Windows installation has to rely on a third-party tool like Rufus. That's something I already had.
