Official MediCat USB - A Multiboot Linux USB for PC Repair

[AAA3A]

Does anyone following this thread have an idea for a windows password tool that has special features? And tools for bitlocking?
Ex :
- Passcape to find passwords
- PC Unlocker to remove it
- Bypass to bypass it
...

I'm currently updating Jayro's Lockpick to publish it here and I'd like to know if there are any particular tools you'd like to add!

Quick question... I'm using V21 to boot a laptop with secure boot enabled. When I booted the laptop (Dell Latitude 5510) It said something about "Error Verification Failed"... so I browsed and loaded the key that was on the flashdrive in the ventoy folder... it did boot up Medicat but now it only sees the flashdrive and not the internal SSD... what did I do wrong and how do I "fix" it. I've tried to delete any secure boot keys from bios, but I must be doing it wrong. Any help or a point to the proper documentation would be grateful.

I have an update. I have rebuilt the flashdrive with ventoy secure boot off... then disabled secureboot in bios of the machine... flash drive boots now, but none of the images can see the built in SSD drive... only sees the flash drive. Any ideas?

This website maybe of interest to you. Has some old BIOS tools.

This looks like a very useful site with many decent tools which should definitely be added to the Lockpick suite.

 

[AAA3A]

On the website you posted, there are three tools.
1) This tool is based on Linux. So I can't put it in a winPE and therefore in Jayro's Lockpick. Also, it does not work under uefi.
2) This tool is difficult to use and did not work when testing someone on Discord.
3) The software cannot be run.

Ventoy v1.0.42 has been released

Ok, further research has shown that the default settings on these dell machines is BIOS setting ACHI/RAID is set to RAID.
Does anyone know if the MediCat supports Intel RST drivers? I think it can't see the SSD drive because it doesn't have the RAID drivers installed.

Any way to inject drivers in the MediCat ISO's? (like the mini win10??)
Or any way to test my theory??

Thanks in advance....

can't you set your BIOS to AHCI?

What size USB drive is recommended for MediCat 21? I see in the FAQ, someone had asked how to install on a 32GB drive, but is a higher capacity recommended? I probably won't be adding anything onto my drive for the forseeable future.

Medicat developed takes in my case 24.4 GB of space, so a 32GB is enough

May I suggest at least one extra antivirus tool as I just ran into a case where a Malware Bytes full system scan "is not enough" and had to download and run Bitdefender Rescue CD for a mate who got infected with something. I have since updated my Medicat with the relevant changes to the json and added an icon so I don't have this problem in future.

Just a suggestion, not exactly the end of the world.

Hi RogueAntics, just follow the link bellow on other wonderful package by Jayro.
Search the thread with title Medicat: Second opinion - a collection of bootable antivirus - an ISO file containing what you requested.
Thanks goes to Jayro for his work.

My AV ran a scan on my drive and attempted to quarantine some files in the portable apps. I restored them but now the drive seems to be corrupted and now shows the message “Selected boot image did not authentic”. Anything I can do besides starting over??

Hello, I present you the update of Jayro's Lockpick. I used the Krinal 1.3 version that I modified. Here are the modifications in the chancelog.

Spoiler: Pictures

Spoiler: Changelog

Chancelog of Jayro's Lockpick:

Made by Krinal (version 1.3 download)
- LazeSoft Windows Password Recovery removal
- Update OO User manager to v1.0.1.5715
- Update PC Unlocker to v5.6
- Add SQL Server Password Changer
- Version for each tool

Made by AAA3A:
- Web site for each tool in the context menu
- Changing the window name (Jayro's Lockpick Win 10 x64)
- Creation of a main menu
- Two buttons in the main menu to access the x64 or x86 tool menus
- A button to go to the official website
- A button added to the x64 and x86 tool menus to return to the main menu
- The three previous improvements allow for a more ethical and practical menu
- On a winPE, the touchpads do not work. That's why having a main menu with buttons that lead to the other menus allows for easier and faster access, but also better keyboard support!
- Software start-up image as in Sergei

Spoiler: Installation

The installation is quick: there is only one step (replace the "/Programs/Lockpick" folder with the one on Mega).

This should be included in a future version of MediCat. Good job!

It will be merged in the May release.

Lots of false positives...

I have found that the lockpick and active password works on everything I needed even domain computers.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Thanks!

The 64gb drive is for both system. I also use 32gb for the VHD.
