Using Ventoy to carry many systems on one USB

Updated 26 October 2026

Ventoy turns a USB drive into a multi-system boot menu. Copy ISO files onto it and choose at start-up.

Basics

1. Install Ventoy to the drive once.
2. Copy ISO files like normal files.
3. Boot and pick the system from the menu.

Notes

• Larger drives hold more systems.
• Some images need special handling; check Ventoy's compatibility list.
