Bart’s Preinstalled Environment creates a live Windows desktop on a bootable medium, such as a CD or USB drive. BartPE’s developer, Bart Lagerweij, provides a program for extracting files from a Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 disc and installing them on a CD, although separate software is needed to install the files on a USB drive. Both programs are needed for creating a live USB drive – PE Builder to extract the boot files and the companion software to install them on the drive. The companion program, called PeToUSB, is designed to use the boot files created by PE Builder. Tips Writer Bio
