[Optional:] If your drive is bigger than 8GB you may want to increase the size of the virtual system drive of your new Windows in order to gain more disk space:
1) browse to your USB drive and move the 7USBEditionByiMortaluz.vhd somewhere else (e.g. desktop)
2) start VHDResizer.exe and select this file
3) press "save as" and browse to you USB drive again. Call the file 7USBEditionByiMortaluz [It won`t work if you call it something else!] and press save
4) Choose the size depending on the size of your USB drive and press resize. Get yourself a cup of coffee, it`s going to take long time.
5) When you boot your new portable windows for the first time - press start menu, type partition and hit enter. Right click 7USBEditionByiMortaluz and choose "extend volume". Keep pressing next.

No files will be lost!
