i want to install windows 10 64 bit, since my OS is a 32 bit i need to clean install everything. Now i don't want to buy a new hdd to backup my file and realize that my usb has enough space needed as installment. can i install windows 10 and put in my usb then when all is done i just move the windows file to system C: and have my usb the scapegoat for a format?

Now clearly, this is not the most ideal situation. For one, this will surely shortness the life cycle of your USB with the numerous reads and writes it’ll have to perform. Also, USB speed is much slower than SATA speed.

just cause you can do it, doesn't mean you should.

the USB might die a lot faster than you prepared for. This is only a temporary fix.

You will need to reinstall it on hdd when you ready to move it, can't just move the windows files
