You didn't mention one thing about medicat: you can add or remove tools and iso's as you wish because ventoy is basis. What you have are tools you boot from usb and ventoy. Normally as you know you can have one bootable iso on usb but with ventoy size of usb is limit. Oh yeah, there is neat tool called ventoy plugson which will allow you to configure ventoy using gui and it will generate json file for you automaticaly. You can make something akin to medicat yourself.

You mean ventoy comes preinstalled on medicat usb. I have ventoy usb and I want to install medicat on it. Should I save all my isos somewhere else and install medicat. After which I van place them inside it again. Will that make those iso's 'bootable' again just as it did with ventoy?
@raughboy1883 ай бұрын
@@binaryraptor You have ventoy usb already? You don't need to install medicat on it, you can just add iso images of tools found on medicat already to your ventoy usb. Medicat is in it's essence modified ventoy with bunch of bootble images. I have ventoy usb with with everything i need and that makes it my own personal version of medicat. To make you own version of medicat you need of course ventoy, you need iso from one ore more OS you'll need iso's from tools like clonezilla for backup or bootrepair you can use to fix boot loader for example. Don't remove ventoy from your usb just add iso images of tools you want to use and make your own personal version of medicat specificaly aimed at what you use.

@@_Caddac I tried installing Medicat on my USB 3.0 drive. I have an older Dell Optiplex 390 that is MBR and runs in "Legacy" and cannot support "Secure Boot." I just came back to the computer and saw Medicat says "Everything is ok." It says "29652 files checked." There is a green check mark. But there is a red "x" that says "There were 43 missing files." In Windows Defender, it says two programs in particular were stopped. Those are "PUA:Win32/Passshow" and "PUADIManager:Win32/Installcore" What are your thoughts on this? Should I allow those programs with Windows Defender? What is the significance of having 43 missing files like that? Should I click on "Press any key to continue"? Or should I allow the PUA files in Defender first? In Defender "Protection History" it shows 39 files that were "Quarantined" today - presumably from that Medicat App. I actually clicked on "Press any key to continue" at that point, and it looks like the installation of Medicat was complete - presumably without the 43 missing files and the 39 files that were "Quarantined." What are your thoughts? I've run Windows Defender, Malware Bytes, and another antivirus program. They say the computer currently does not have any virus problems. What should I do with those 39 Quarantined programs? Should I "Delete" or "Block" them?
