How To Boot Virtual Machine From USB Drive in VMWare Workstation The Teacher In this VMWare Workstation Tutorial, you will learn to boot a VMWare Virtual Machine From USB Flash Drive. VMWare actually does not support booting all the USB drives. You may find that sometimes it lets you boot from some of the USB flash drives and other times it fails. PLOP is an alternative third-party ISO image that lets users access your Bootable USB Drive during the boot process. But you can boot directly from a USB drive within from VMWare Workstation by using a little trick. What you need to do is to add an Additional Hard Disk Drive and point your USB drive as a Physical Disc to the newly added drive. Then change the BIOS boot options to boot from the newly added Hard Drive. In this video, you will learn to add a new Hard Drive to your Virtual Machine and then attach your USB Drive to the newly created hard drive

Works with VM Workstation 15. The most pain in the ass part was trying to get it to pick up the F2 spam to enter bios, but I found you can power off the machine, then go VM > Power > Power on to firmware and then change the hard disk order under BIOS. This way in your video was the only way that worked.

Hello and thanks. I wonder if anyone would know how I can boot 2 PC's directly to a local LAN server to either vmware or Hyper-V. I just need to tell these PC's to look for the OS's on the server at a particular IP. Thanks ahead of time.

I am getting an error insufficient permission. also the booting screen looks different to mine. what version of VMware it the one in the video
reply

didnt work, vmware cant see the USB drive, even though it is accessible in windows 10 and diskpart list disk also shows it.

I tried this but when I power on the virtual windows, an error message appears saying -the physical disk is already in use-
