Moreover, it allows you to recover deleted partition, extend system partition, and rebuild MBR without losing any data. The most important thing is that the WinPE bootable disk can boot a crashed computer and boot a computer without OS. Here in this guide, we will tell you how to create a WinPE bootable disk in two ways.

Method 1. Create WinPE Bootable Disk in Two Steps

Creating a WinPE bootable disk is very complicated. It does not only contains many steps but also requires users to have advanced computer knowledge.
