The software startredirecte.exe is not found anywhere on the internet, where did you find it?

No idea, it was part of WinBuilder.

Malwarebytes does not start in the winPE or normally. During version 21.01, it worked perfectly, but now I have reinstalled from the official Malwarebytes post, but nothing works!
Do you know how to fix the problem?

I agree, here is the log (PE started in BIOS mode):

If Ventoy fails every time, then you need to do a low-level "FULL" format of the disk. (Not "Quick format".) I typically use a partition manager to wipe all the drive's partitions, and then create a single NTFS partition on the drive. That usually allows Ventoy to write to the drive. and the second issue you have is you need to take everything out of that folder. I didn't zip the files in a folder, so I'm not sure why that folder is even there. You must have extracted the zip files wrong on the drive. Rufus won't help you get the drive booting properly, because Ventoy installs it's own secret partition to the end of the drive with it's own boot files. Make sure you're running Ventoy2Disk with admin priveledges as well.

UPDATE: You know what? After reading your log file, you may want to try using Ventoy's boot CD to install Ventoy to the drive. It looks like Windows isn't allowing it for some reason.

So I successfully created the drive with LiveCd, and even though it is a 64G USB, the extraction failed for lack of space. Ventoy has used 25M of the space and turned it to FAT, and USB has now only 32MB total storage. Have I missed a step? I'm sorry for my lack of knowledge on this and thank you for your patience.

Are you on Windows 7 by chance? Windows 7 will only see 1 partition, so you need to be on Windows 8 or Windows 10. Also, use a partition manager to format the large main partition of the drive to NTFS.

No, Windows 10. I found the large unallocated partition and formatted NTFS. It is extracting there now. Wish me luck!

Hello ALL,
I have been making my own Pe builds for a few years and just decided to do some updates to 10 and low and behold I found YOU. Already seeding!!. This is a lovely little tool. I was using yumi for a while for my mini pe and UBCD with all my iso installs.
I had to use my win 7 to decompress the files because win 10 times out and reactives the virus protection. I see it doesnt like my 256gb flash so I guess I will stick to the 64gb.
Im trying to decide which is better the 21.03 or VHD....considering my history I usually need to remove a virus and backup file or crack a forgotten password.

Any opinions?.......(I think I just answered it lol)

Everything works fine from my end, I tested everything on my laptop before release.

I am customizing the F6 submenu of Ventoy and I am looking for a grub command to put in the ventoy.grub.cfg file to start for example the mini windows 10.

I've tried that, and it's just a major pain in the ass for me to manage. Also increases my uploads by quite a bit, and I have a very slow upload speed.

You could use Resilio sync; its like a torrent but with the difference that you can change files on the fly and upload only changed files to the peers.

Anyone looking for a working version of MiniTool Partition Wizard 12.3 shoot me a PM. The one in this version continues not to work but I have fixed it. When you run the MiniTool Partition Wizard and wait like 10 seconds it should put you in the program. If you still cant get in when you click on the "MiniTool Partition Wizard Tab" just hit Alt+Tab and click on the MiniTool Wizard Icon and Boom your in and up and going! I have tested several times in BIOS and UEFI on 2 different systems and it works.

PS: This is the ISO file! Not the portable version.

Could you put a link here?

It looks like it completed successfully, except for this:

I don't know why the decompression doesn't work, but here are the files you are missing.

Thanks - should I put those in the Ventoy partition or the medicat partition?

You must put these files in the Medicat partition with the other files you extracted!

I did that, thanks! Is there a document anywhere that describes everything on the stick and what it does? Appreciative of your patience!!

How can you make a "Nano windows 10" from mini windows 10? Reduced to 40 mo like the Nano window 7 you made at the time. (https://gbatemp.net/threads/medicat...usb-for-pc-repair.361577/page-64#post-8341175)

Hello , I cannot launch the antivirus or the mini windows 10 for example when booting on USB. I have the message: Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.
I have the same message on several different PCs.
Any idea to help me please?

EDIT :
Ok, I solved part of my problem, it looks like it's a RAM issue. I have one last concern on a Lenovo, when I run an ISO with Ventoy. The boot does not start, I have two flashing dashes at the top left.I may pass next to a parameter in the BIOS. But there I stall ...
