• Really, no ventoy?

• Good stuff. I am now a subscriber. I always like learning new things and these certainly are helpful. Thanks.
  Oh, one more thing: Thank you, thank you for not playing any music while you are talking to us. I find more and more YT hosts feel playing music during their narration is a good thing. It is not.

• I dont understand what do you need the Hirens tools if you already have the media creation tool. The MCT installs windows fress. What's the use of the other thumbdrive. I didnt get that.

• Hey there Scott! Thanks for the 2024 update. Always enjoy your content.
  A quick question, so must it be 2 USB drives? As I have Ventoy on mine. Is that not the way to go anymore?

  Thanks.

• Laughs in Linux….. well I am, it's great.

• I had to manually insert the ISO into Rufus. Now, Rufus will not allow : Device, partition scheme, target system, file system, or cluster size manipulation after dragging the ISO in. All of the drop downs are grayed out and contain nothing. Now what? Win10 home; version22H2

• Hi, great YT & thank you. Can you please do one with MediaCat? Please & thank you.

• I also have 2 flash drives wich serves me as recovery solution with wich i never reinstall windows again. One of them is ventoy dual boot stick with windows 11(just in case) and Resquezilla. Other drive is very fast usb3.2 silicon power ds72 in wich i backup all my files included whole windows. In this case whatever happens to my computer i can easily restore my whole system with all my files and setting in just 20-30 mins. I recommend you to make video in wich you can backup and restore windows with resquezilla, its very good and elegant solution

• VenToy – One Disc to Rule them All

• Youtube, for some reason, thinks I'm so gullible I use Windows. Flushed that turd in 2012. Ugh.

• I think you should make a video comparing Hirens boot utility media vs Medicat boot utility media
  Also, show how both can be put on a single usb using Ventoy along with a windows 10 /11 boot image

• Please make a video on how to Clone Windows 11 to a Pendrive

• Still wondering why it has to be on two separate sticks. It would be more economical and handy to use just one.

• A man who keeps a promise.

• Ultimate boot cd used to be the thing but I think its not been updated in almost 10 years.

• Bro please how do i contact you personally. I need your help and it's confidential

• Linux is not i repeat is not i repat lol a backup system.mits an os, now does it have an utility to back up info? probably.

• Ventoy adds another level to utility tools

• Can’t believe this video was posted today! I work at a small repair shop, and have been troubleshooting a device all day. Hiren’s Boot is exactly the kind of Swiss Army knife I’m looking for. I can’t thank you enough for sharing.
  Rock on man! 🤘

• Great video, and explanation. I was one of those hu got confused. All clear now.

• Thanks Scott.

• I suggest using Ventoy or Yumi to combine them into one drive.

• I thought Empty USB memory sticks needed to be formatted?

• What's the difference between Media Creation Tool off the website and 'Create a Recovery Drive' within Windows itself?
  Thanks, great info.

• My PC would not automatically change the Rufus target system window to Bios or UEFI by simply choosing the ios file, I had to click and drag the file over to the Rufus window in order to get it to change. I say this for whomever might encounter this problem plus if you click Alt-E more then once it toggle's back to disabled or enabled so watch for that too. Thanks for the video it's appreciated much.

• I had a problem scanning from my Windows 11 Pro desktop to Brother Printer/Scanner. When I first bought the pc the scanning worked. Then after Windows update 23H I could no longer scan. I did a full reset on my Windows11 Pro. My question is how do I remain current with Windows but not install Windows Update 23H?

• Will win8 procedure work for windows 7.

• 1:52 fairly certain you can spare yourself the effort of formatting the drive – the Media Creator will format it anyways.

  6:42 only Rufus? No mention of/compatibility with Ventoy?
  I like Ventoy better because I can just chuck whatever ISOs I could/would ever use/need.

• I thought just 1 created with Ventoy with Windows iso and Hirens iso was sufficient?

• I have both already, but thanks for the awesome video!! I actually just made those 2 USBs last week. 🙂

• What happened to Ventoy?

• Do you need the Windows Recovery USB if you purchased Windows 11 on a USB instead of digital download? Does the Windows USB drive contain the same capabilities as the drive you recommend creating?

  Thanks!

• It's not Here-rens, it's pronounced Hi-rens!

• I am always learning new stuff from these videos. A quick question though. Am I right in thinking that if I do, say a monthly clone of my hard drive, and do regular backups of my important files to an external storage device, then I should never really have any need for the tools in this video? (I take for granted that I do not clone a faulty hard drive as that would of course be a bit of a show stopper).

• Why not using Ventoy anymore? Like the previous video you make. (And put it all in one drive?)

• An update on a update 😮
