How Do I create Bootable Usb Drive But Keep The Files In It?

  • 6

I got a USB flash drive and I want to make Ubuntu Linux 17.04 boot on it. However, I have important files for my windows pc on it that I don’t want to lose. How would I still have access to those files but have a bootable OS on it? What I mean is partitioning the drive. How would I do this?
