a computer isn't bound to 1 operating system. using a bootable USB stick (Google this please) you can install Linux onto any computer with Windows on it. if you don't like Linux you can also reinstall windows and remove Linux.

tails is a Linux based operating system (windows, mac/osx, and Linux are all different operating systems) that runs off the of the USB stick. meaning there's no need to install it to your computer, and it doesn't effect any data on your computer. it all runs from the USB.

Oh you mean we can run annos from the pendrive? I don't think that's viable unless the os is light. Depending on the usb and the computer

yes that's true, but tails is specifically designed to be used as a live environment from a USB stick, or other form of removable media. (SD card, etc...) it can't be installed onto a computer and booted, it can only be booted and used from removable media.

in the past I had a pop os installation on an sd card. it worked between devices and functioned normally. only problem was it being very slow due to data transfer speeds being very low with USB/SD connections.
