A free app for creating a bootable USB drive

Ventoy will prepare your USB drive so that you may copy ISO/WIM/IMG/EFI files to and from your drive, and you may boot them directly. You will not have to format your disk over and over in order to move your files.

Move your files and boot them

You may copy several files at a time, in the same way you may move files around your Windows GUI. Both UEFI and Legacy BIOS are supported, and most types of operating system are supported by this tool. They have already tested the tool with 550+ ISO files and they work perfectly.

Brilliant in its simplicity

The app does its job with no added menus or features, so it feels like you are interacting with a file rather than working with a tool. It is not clear why Ventoy adds an EFI partition to the USB, perhaps it is so people can UEFI boot.

Prepare and prime

The good thing about Ventoy is that you only really use it to prepare your USB divides. Once you have done that, you may easily copy ISOs onto your device. You do not need the Ventoy app to actually do the transferring, which isn't something that similar programs/apps can boast.

No added nonsense

Ventoy does not add a number of extraneous files to your USB that it needs to do its job. Ventoy shows you all the ISOs on your device, and it shows you them in alphabetical order. There are no unnecessary menus when using Ventoy, it is a very streamlined app.

PROS

  • Replacing older ISOs with newer ones is very easy.
  • No need for added menus.
  • Does not take up space with system files.
  • Do not need it during the transfer process.

CONS

  • Does not state why it adds an EFI partition to the USB.
  • No function for customizing ISO names.
  • Tutorials are difficult to find.
  • Does not splatter your USB with extraneous files.
