And it just keeps improving and extending what it can do. This program has evolved considerably over the three years or so it’s been available.

The more I look at plugson the more things I find to like about it. Thus, I plan on writing about it again after some more time spend fooling round … err … experimenting with its features and functions. I’m not sure I understand all the wrinkles just yet. The Plugson GUI manager is a major step forward in functionality, visibility and insight, and improved control over the program. Or download and update if you already are. Why, download and install if you’re not already using the tool. If Ventoy 1.0.62 Gets Plug-in Manager, Then What? The result is a way to store all of your Windows (and other OS) images in one place, along withe repair tools, and boot into them as and when you need to.

The VTOYEFI partition (32 MB FAT) has just enough smarts to get the PC running, mount an image, and then pass boot control over to that image. The bulk of the device is exFAT formatted, and provides storage for ISO, WIM, VHDX, and other mountable cabinet or image formats. If you’re not already familiar with Ventoy, it includes two partitions on USB attached storage media. Thus, when Ventoy 1.0.62 gets plug-in manager, I get ready information to helpful details right away. The partition style on the ventoy drive is MBR and some of my newer laptops are GPT/UEFI only. It includes a GUI plugin configurator that immediately explained to me why I have issues with my current version on some of my laptops. The developers have recently released a new 1.0.62 version at GitHub. I’ve been a huge fan of the Ventoy bootable image tool for several years now.
