MediCat USB v21.12 is live!

(See the attached changelog for details.)

And don't forget to try out the new installer!

@MON5TERMATT has put a lot of work into this, and it's really polished! It will always download the latest version of the installer by itself before it begins. It can download all the MediCat files directly from either Google or Torrent, or if you already have the files it can use those too!

Medicat 21.12 is beautiful and works very well.
The installer, simple to use, following the suggested steps, and worked perfectly.
The installation of Medicat becomes really simple.
Ideally, the installer should allow you to upgrade to future versions of Medicat without having to reinstall everything?
Congratulations again to JAYRO and his team!

Hello Jayro,
I have attached a list (extracted from ventoy.json) of the ISO packges I included in my 120GB external USB3 drive containing the MediCat 21.06 package. I have replaced all the WIM files with the corresponding ISO's due to the compatibility issues appeared on mounting smaller wim archives. On my laptops these settings worked flawless (MacBook Pro early 2013, Dell Inspiron 6400, Lenovo ThinkPad X201t, even on a small netbook Acer Aspire One AO751H), so the main purpose of your really great and hard work, was accomplished "to maintain, repair, heal, recover or backup/clone older but also new systems".
I will let you know details when I will replace (with formating) on my 120GB drive with the new 21.12 version (the winter vacation will offer enough time for testing).
Wishing you all the best, also to all the community witihin MediCat, I am sending greetings for the winter season.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
:toot:

Hello,
In August, 2-3 days after the release of Medicat USB 21.06, I designed two menus, based on Jayro's Lockpick that I update: AAA3A's Backup and AAA3A's Partition, which contain different software from the "Backup_and_Recovery" and "Partition_Tools" folders of Medicat USB.
I had shared them some time ago on Discord and Gbatemp, but these versions are no longer available on Mega and have been updated anyway.
Thanks to the invaluable help of @Gremlin220366 on Discord, I have been able to update the software on 2 menus several times. The last import on Mega was on the day of the release of Medicat USB 21.12, the changes were made during the download.
Originally it was planned that AAA3A's Backup and AAA3A's Partition would be included in Medicat USB 21.12 and replace the original 9 winPEs, but @Jayro removed them to avoid increasing the minimum size of the bootable USB stick to 32GB.
There are one or two programs that have been removed in the new version of Medicat USB, but are still in these two menus.
If there is a problem or an outdated version of a software, please contact me in advance.

AAA3A's Backup

AAA3A's Partition

AAA3A's Backup:
- AOEMI Backupper Technician Plus
- EaseUS Data Recovery
- Macrium Reflect Technician
- MiniTool ShadowMaker Pro Ultimate
- Symantec Ghost

AAA3A's Partition:
- Active UNERASER Ultimate
- DiskGenius Professional
- NIUBI Partition Editor Technician Edition

The installation is very simple. Just download the zip file of one of the menu folders available on Mega at the links indicated below and then place it in any directory. You can then launch them.
AAA3A's Backup: https://mega.nz/file/c8owhJgL#MxrlfG8iqZK_3B9BUrbrGU7o273bl_6ljKjHNKXTVi0

Medicat is already a work of art.
But, if you achieve this goal, you will make many people happy.
It is very simple. The interface is finished and I still have to do the 5 actions executed from a list of files/directories: delete directories, delete files, copy directories, copy files and another script for additional actions (rename files, forgotten file, etc.).

Woooowww!!, Holy f*ck. From 432 MB to 315 MB (117MB saved). Unbelievable that there is still so much space to save on our 32GB USB flash drives!!! That's a 37% savings for 1 .wim file, let alone all the other files.

I find this community incredibly smart, helpful, friendly and driven. Thanks @MON5TERMATT @AAA3A @Gremlin220366 @Jayro Daan Breur Coff33ninja and everyone for their time and dedication to this project.
