Holy crap... This thread is almost at 5 Million views. :creep:

I guess I should probably do some kind of a giveaway. :unsure:

I'm terrible at planning these things. I know what to give away, but not the how part. If you have any ideas on how to do one, shoot me a DM. I'm all ears. :yaysp:

I'm going to be giving away an aluminum USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10GB/s) 256GB NVMe USB stick. It gets about 900MB read, 850~MB write speeds. It will come LOADED with the latest in-progress pre-release build of MediCat USB, along with MediCat VHD, all together on the same drive. The picture is what the USB enclosure looks like. It has a magnetic cap, and the whole thing feels premium in the hands. "One USB stick to rule them all" ...or something like that. ^_^

Is so nice. But I live quite far away from where you stay. Postage may be expensive for you.
I should pay for it instead.

You don't need to do giveaways at all Jayro. You are a star for being YOU and nothing else is required.

I asked how to donate and heard nothing. Keep doing what you are doing, if you need help, ask. Ask.

I don't accept donations, but Longpanda does, he's the creator of Ventoy. His donation page is here: https://www.ventoy.net/en/donation.html

You know what... I might just give Longpanda a donation since you are so selfish that you don't accept anything. :rofl2:

A joke of course, if you ever need anything there are hundreds of willing benefactors behind you.

God bless you Jayro.

Where should I put the lines for the keyboard layout please?

The line in red must be put in /ventoy/ventoy.json! The black lines of code are already present: add the line in red as in the example below!

"control": [
{ "VTOY_DEFAULT_MENU_MODE": "1" },
{ "VTOY_FILT_DOT_UNDERSCORE_FILE": "1" },
{ "VTOY_TREE_VIEW_MENU_STYLE": "1" },
{ "VTOY_MAX_SEARCH_LEVEL": "max" },
{"VTOY_DEFAULT_KBD_LAYOUT": "FRENCH"},
{ "VTOY_FILE_FLT_ISO": "0" },
{ "VTOY_FILE_FLT_WIM": "0" },
{ "VTOY_FILE_FLT_EFI": "0" },
{ "VTOY_FILE_FLT_IMG": "0" },
{ "VTOY_FILE_FLT_VHD": "0" },
{ "VTOY_FILE_FLT_VTOY": "0" }
],

Hi, Jayro.
I see that the Medicat VHD is .vhd type... I found out that the .vhdx type is a better option because there is also protection against data corruption and better alignment.
