How I create USB 32Gb persistent bootable from Windows 8.1 64bit?
You can use a tool like untebootin to create the usb stick from the downloaded ISO. It also allows you to create a persistent part.

With this tool unetbootin cannot boot! I want boot and in persistent mode...

thanks. Exclamation
What is the error when using untebootin? Where do you want to boot? A laptop or PC with UEFI? Securboot? Or BIOS?

Without error, not boot, laptop 7 year, with Windows 8.1 64bit...
thanks.
I think unetbootin might only work with BIOS not UEFI. So try maybe the legacy boot options or however it might be called on your laptop.

Hello, in this laptop "Compaq CQ58".  Boot in persistent mode  "Linux Mint 18.3"  also Ubuntu, Lubuntu etc, with "Universal-USB-Installer-1.9.8.0", but in "Maui" make boot able but not in persistent mode...

thanks...
Did it add the persistent boot parameter to it? Without it it won't boot in persistent mode.
Does it create a persistent partition or persistency file?

Does not turn on "persistent" mode like in "Linux Mint", "Lubuntu", etc... If you can try it... Like  as my portable PC... If you can...

Thanks...
Then maybe do this persitency stuff yourself.
Create a second partition on your usb stick labeled casper-rw and add persistent to the bootoptions of isolinux or grub depending on if you are using uefi or bios.

If you need more help I can help you if you specify exactly where you need help.
