New Update Ventoy: create bootable USB media that uses ISO images

[pxxb1]

Could be something related to your BIOS setup. I had trouble on my friend's PC, but I was successful eventually. Don't remember what was the issue.

Ok.
I have not touch the bios, it is at default settings, and what to change, i have no clue.

I was just interested to try this, the solution i have now with a partitioned usb, a one-time action, then, works fine since years.

What's the CPU? AMD or Intel? What's the motherboard and BIOS version?

Is this app any better than Rufus?

It's different from Rufus. With rufus you can only store one ISO in a flash drive, but with Ventoy you can store as many as you want like a Windows ISO, Linux ISO, Macrium ISO, etc.

That is awesome!

Ventoy is so convenient compared to other similar apps. You just copy and paste ISOs to USB after clicking Install.

This update fixed an issue that I reported. Ventoy's secure boot feature uses "Super-UEFIinSecureBoot-Disk" and what it used was blacklisted by many motherboard vendors in latest BIOS updates including mine. So Ventoy wasn't working anymore. Now everything should be back to normal.

Macrium rescue iso and Hiren's boot cd doesn't work for me with ventoy. The UI just freezes and gets black screen shortly after when I select those. Windows iso and linux mint works fine. Any tips?
Edit: Hiren works now. I was doing it wrong. Macrium iso still doesn't work. Hiren has Macrium but its old version.

Weird. Just tested Macrium. It works fine for me. Maybe try to create a new Macrium ISO and see if that works.
