Creating Windows To go in a virtual machine

Good Morning,

I would like to ask if it is possible (and how) to create Windows 8.1 To Go installed in a virtual machine under Hyper-V ?

Hi Aravil1,

The main issue is to create a Windows To Go from a virtual machine in the Hyper-v ,right ?

It should work as the physical machine if it is a Windows 8 Enterprise or a Windows 8.1 Enterprise version.
We can refer to the following link to create a Windows To Go Workspace.

Ok, thank you. I tried but there was a problem with redirecting USB drive to the vritual machine. When I start the creator, it shows "no USB devices found"

Hi Aravil1,

We can enable the "Enhanced Session Mode" to redirect the USB from the host to the Hyper-V.

Here is a link for reference :
