    So what happens exactly when you attempt to boot from it.... any errors? Or does it just boot straight into the installed operating system?

    I assume you have changed the boot order in the BIOS so that boot from USB is first in the list?

    Also, please confirm the exact version of SSR you are using (look in Help/About for version details) as support for Windows 10 was added in a service pack so you may not have a supported version for Win10.

      >I am choosing boot from USB

      we have System_Recovery_2013R2_11.1.6.55604, i created the recovery disk in USB but not able to boot.

        What USB drive are you using?

        Could you also provide some details about the hardware you are trying this on (make, model etc).
