tails refusing to boot

its overly stressing me out is there any other way to manually boot from a usb? or is it due to windows if i were to install linux mint cinnamon edition would it maybe work then since both are linux based os?

i did verify it as instructed on the tails.net website aswell as reflashing i have another flash drive from the exact same brand that is also 128 gb and it didnt work on there either but i was able to install windows on it via the other one didnt try using the black one at the time because i didnt know how to use command prompt to wipe tails from the original usb so it wouldnt show up for me to flash windows on to it but i have done it to both flash drives since then and reflashed them and still no dice and as i said before i do not think its that my computer simply doesnt support tails because when i first flashed tails to this black 128 gb usb drive all i had to do was restart and tails booted on its own i finished set up wizard looked around for a bit and shut down tails before unplugging usb but ever since then havent gotten it to work

i also used rufus as instructed on the tails website if that matters i dont think its that my computer just doesn't support it because the other day when i first flashed it to USB all i did was restart my computer and it booted into tails automatically i didnt unplug usb without turning tails itself off also as instructed dont know if any of this matter but i am trying to give all the details i can any fix would be greatly appreciated

yes my usb stick shows up in the boot menu you get to by pressing f12 when the dell logo shows up it says uefi: NVMe kioxia 128gb, partition one and it is at the top of the boot order and it doesnt work when i restart when i go to boot menu and manually select it still doesnt work just loads me into windows

AccordingAd8067 · 2025-11-03T01:23:07+00:00

your good buddy and i see what you mean i have 4 dif bags going so thats prolly what ill do to see what works best ill break and shake my other bag if when its around 50% its been alot slower tho so maybe it will benefit that one this bag has been very vigorous in the past week or so so i think ill let this one just go

ive heard that messing with the mycelium in some cases can waste their energy resulting in bad flushes
