I couldn’t get Jayro’s Lockpick to find my nvme drive, so I just formatted the drive and started over, but for future reference, is there a way to make the program find my drives? Thank you.
Using secure boot and enrolling the key using the MOK Manager usually works to show the drives. But having the boot time drivers on the USB can help too on certain systems.
The MEGA links of this project and Malwarebytes are dead, but I just downloaded via torrent so wasn't bothered by it.

Great program packs.
Thanks.

Thanks.
Both links have been fixed. Thank you for notifying me about it.
I just make this account to specifically just to applaud to you at how you are still active at here after years and still help people! Thanks!
I don't suppose it's possible to somehow enable the extended 4096 character path length? I've run into Windows' default 256 character path limit particularly when creating checksum files from EXT4 partitions (which normally lack such a limit) whereby the resulting checksum is just 00000000000000 or the like (and there's no native GUI-based Linux software that can do this AFAIK...)
Here's the normal way to enable it on an actual Windows installation:
But MediCat isn't exactly that, especially since registry edits require rebooting in order to take effect but rebooting makes MediCat lose any changed OS settings, so..

since medicat's windows is booting from a WIM file you can do it, just follow something like

Turns out that, if all you really want is the "Mini Windows 10" environment, then you can drastically cut down the used disk space all the way to just 1 or 2GB.
Basically all you need is the "Mini Windows 10.wim" file (which you can put right in the root of your disk if you want rather that in sub-folders) along with the entire "USB:\ventoy" and "USB:\system" folder.
From there, if you want any PortableApps, copy over the files "USB:\start.exe" and "USB:\CDUsb.y" as well as all of the files (not folders!) located directly in "USB:\PortableApps" and also copy the "USB:\PortableApps\PortabeApps.com" folder too, and then copy over whatever program folders you want from "USB:\PortableApps" (making sure to not change any of the folder paths)
Lastly, if you want any of the non-PortableApps programs (e.g. 7-zip, Firefox, or Macrium Reflect), then copy over the files "USB:\Programs\Software Lister.exe" and "USB:\Progarms\Softwares.txt" and then also copy over whatever programs you want from "USB:\Programs" (again, making sure to not change any of the folder paths)
Do note that there are at least some default file associations that expect Chrome and MPC-BE to be present in "USB:\Programs", but since it seems Firefox isn't set for any associations, this means you can just as easily add the most lastest version in PortableApps form instead (and oddly enough, IrfanView non-portable is set up as the default image viewer despite not being present in B:\Programs... but you can add it yourself by downloading the latest PortableApps version of IrfanView and copying over its "App\IrfanView64" folder in USB:\Programs\ and then renaming it to "IrfanView_x64")
EDIT: Holy crap I just discovered an awesome protip: If you put the "USB:\start.exe" and "USB:\CDUsb.y" onto another partition (I had it as NTFS, but no idea about other formats), then you can actually store the "PortableApps" and "Programs" folder onto that other partition and yet have things "just work" (I had it on the same disk, but no idea if that's actually required). The main benefit is for running live Linux ISOs since, by default via Ventoy/MediCat, they typically can't access the partition the ISO is stored on, but having your programs and data and stuff stored on another partition means that those live Linux ISOs can actually access them! (and for those that don't know, you can actually install Wine during at least a live ISO session of Ubuntu or Linux Mint, but you'll need like at least 12GB of RAM).
And in the process of this, I noticed that only the non-PortableApps version of WizTree is included, yet the PortableApps version of WinDirStat is included? (and it's my impression that WizTree should just be all-around newer and better than WinDirStat). Perhaps a PortableApps version of WizTree didn't exist at the time, but here's the link to it:

Thanks, but honestly that seems a bit involved... I might take a gander at it eventually some day (maybe at the same time I finally try taking a look at a forked version of HashCheck Shell Extension that re-enabled MD4 support).

VMware is how I developed it, so I sure hope so, lol. (Yes)
Follow an online tutorial showing how to setup USB booting in VMware, and go from there.
Wow thanks for the so fast answer, I am overthinking about this, please can you guide me on how to run MediCat on VMWare?
Thanks a lot.
I edited my comment above, maybe you didn't see the full thing.
Ok, thanks, sadly I have not physical access to the VMWare infraestructure is a remote datacenter, I was thinking about creating a VMX with all the files and boot it like a virtual machine.I edited my comment above, maybe you didn't see the full thing.
Again Thanks a lot for the quick answer.

Well, I used the Medicat VHD version and then using QEMU was able to convert it to VMWare VMDK format and use that file as the boot disk of a blank virtual machine and worked just fine!!
