Just switched to Ventoy today! Except Kaspersky Rescue disk and ParrotOS Home(customized ISO) everything works fine!

That's good :) both of them support it

ISO list

a few months ago I put Jailbreak boot ISO into Ventoy (install JB on iPhone) i was surprised it was working fine, i think i buy a new flash drive like 64GB or 128GB soon

I have a usb running with Ventoy and it has Paragon HD 25 anniversary (backup and partition repair), Terabyte Image for windows, Strelec windows 10 PE and Minitool Shadowmaker ISO's on there with a custom boot menu! They all boot up and run perfect from the usb!
