Without extracting, just drag and drop to move ISO images into USB drive, and it will boot them! Like normal USB drive, you can put your photos and other data along with ISO images. With Ventoy, it just format your USB one time, create a small ( 34 MB in my case) EFI partition, and leave all other spaces free in another partition. Why Ventoy:ĭifferent to other USB creators, you don’t need to format your USB stick again and again to write data from ISO images. Now Ventoy is a good choice that I use often to try different operating systems. If you often work with multiple ISO files, Ventoy might be the ideal solution for you.I used to create bootable Ubuntu USB installer with UNetbootin, then with Ubuntu’s built-in USB creator. The developer keeps improving the product, adding support for new systems and resolving existing issues. This program is powerful and dramatically facilitates booting and installation processes. Since convenience is the name of the game with this tool, you don't need to manually update your program with each new upgrade, either. It displays available options on clearly-labelled fields and ISO options in lists or a tree view. While it doesn't have the most fashionable look, Ventoy features a straightforward, smooth interface. It also supports Secure Boot, Persistence for Linux, and auto-installation for additionally customising your configuration. This program can perform Legacy BIOS and UEFI booting, which significantly increases the available operating system options. You can click on the one you wish to use and wait for the process to finish. Ventoy will offer you a selection menu with over 470 available ISO files across several major operating systems (for now, with more to come). You can then place ISO images on your USB. All you need to do is choose your USB and click the Update button, and the program will boot your device.


Once you download and launch the file, it will open a window showing you a list of available setup locations. Ventoy's installation process is straightforward.
