I have a large number of emails saved in a folder in my Mail box. Some of the
emails have files attached, and some do not.
I want to save all the emails (including the attachments) to a USB device.

You cannot, assuming you are referring to Outlook you can only copy the data
file in its entirety, which can then only be accessed within Outlook.
You could save the emails as eml files and save the attachments seperately

Create a PST on the USB device and copy the folder you want to transfer to
that PST. Close the PST in Outlook, close Outlook, then unload the USB device
and put it on the other PC. Open Outlook, then open the PST on the USB device
in Outlook with File>Open>Outlook Data File. now you can copy the folder in
the PST to the main Outlook folders. Close the PST in Outlook, close Outlook,
and you can then remove the device again.
