Ventoy is an open source tool to create bootable USB drives for ISO/IMG/VHD(x)/WIM/EFI files. With Ventoy, you don't need to format the disk over and over, you just need to copy the disk images to the USB drive and boot them directly. You can have multiple images on the disk and Ventoy will give you a boot menu to select them.

Changelog for 1.0.98

  1. Updated EFI boot files.
  2. Fix the issue that can not recognize Ext4 filesytem created with latest gparted.
  3. Fix the issue that VTOY_LINUX_REMOUNT=1 cannot take effect in RHEL9/CentOS9. (#2827)
  4. Fix the boot issue for latest archlinux. (#2825 #2824)
  5. Fix the boot issue for latest KAOS.
  6. languages.json updated.
  7. vtoyboot-1.0.35 released. Notes

I just discovered Ventoy this past week or so and haven't had any issues with any ISO I've thrown at it.

It's my new favorite utility.

It didn't work with windows for me, so I've defenestrated it from my USB sticks.

I was able to use it for Windows recovery and as Windows 10 install media with no issues. Sorry it didn't work for you though.

Its no big deal, I'm happy being able to try out various distros (including a rescue-distro) from one USB stick. I rarely need to boot windows from a stick.

Glad it worked out for you! 😊
