yes i think this is a great set to utility tools I'm glad someone did this I'm definitely interested in using it

What a great tool man. Thanks for sharing..

I installed MediCat 5 min ago. Great video! From PR.

Good video, good tool. Subscribed boss!

great, thanks to developers for this free tool.

love the straight face with the name tag

AV flags many activators, etc as malware and has done so since the Win9x days. BTW Medicat, Ventoy etc can be installed to external SSD if you want the space and of course you can boot a Medicat or Ventoy'ed hdd installed on a test PC.

Great tut. This tool has helped me out a few times. Everyone should have a Medicat disk in their drawer.

One of my biggest issues is with MS themselves and their predatory business practices. "*Gets home network finally running* Yay! *Winduhs installs updates which not only reset all settings but re-enable functions I turned off*

Thanks for the review, I will mention we recently rewrote the site, its missing most of the documentation right now but we are working on it

I noticed when I put together my usb it says 47 missing files.

You didn't mention one thing about medicat: you can add or remove tools and iso's as you wish because ventoy is basis. What you have are tools you boot from usb and ventoy. Normally as you know you can have one bootable iso on usb but with ventoy size of usb is limit. Oh yeah, there is neat tool called ventoy plugson which will allow you to configure ventoy using gui and it will generate json file for you automaticaly. You can make something akin to medicat yourself.

Hi Caddac, Awesome video very informative. Thanks mate. However I've a quick question, is it deployable on bare-metal cloud to diagnose user's VDI issues. If yes, is the same process?

Good morning Dimitri! I was looking for a tool to help me maintain my 2 PC's and Laptop. As I was browsing I found Ventoy, then I found Medicat through your channel.

Yes I will create a Medicat USB Recovery tool

Is it safe to just run this on your main personal computer? Or if you install it on your USB does it simply run off the Usb? (Like windows runs on your C: disk) so that you can run it on whatever pc you use?

Yes, it boots into the different operating systems on and from that usb.

I couldn't make it boot. With or without secure boot enabled, only UEFI or not. It doesn't boot. Aorus Elite/Ryzen7 I'm going to format the pendrive and do it all again.

Why has been flagged by numerous security vendors and labeled as a threat by Sentinel, VirusTotal and Intezer? Is still safe to by pass and install?

So if you plug the usb after booting into an OS and navigate the drive, you'll be able to see the file structure and where the ISOs are located. I believe you can add additional ISOs to those folders but I haven't tried myself. Could always hop in their discord and ask as well.

Are you using Belena Etcher or something else, like rufus? This video is a step by step tutorial, showing even the simplest basics, that i would have cut out. I'm wondering, maybe the usb is alright, you have much likely problems with booting from an external devise, due to bios setting! Maybe try it on a different device, turn off secure boot and chose the usb device as bootdevice on the boot-menue

Bricked 2 laptops by just inserting this USB.

@@_Caddac I tried installing Medicat on my USB 3.0 drive. I have an older Dell Optiplex 390 that is MBR and runs in "Legacy" and cannot support "Secure Boot." I just came back to the computer and saw Medicat says "Everything is ok." It says "29652 files checked." There is a green check mark. But there is a red "x" that says "There were 43 missing files." In Windows Defender, it says two programs in particular were stopped. Those are "PUA:Win32/Passshow" and "PUADIManager:Win32/Installcore" What are your thoughts on this? Should I allow those programs with Windows Defender? What is the significance of having 43 missing files like that? Should I click on "Press any key to continue"? Or should I allow the PUA files in Defender first? In Defender "Protection History" it shows 39 files that were "Quarantined" today - presumably from that Medicat App. I actually clicked on "Press any key to continue" at that point, and it looks like the installation of Medicat was complete - presumably without the 43 missing files and the 39 files that were "Quarantined." What are your thoughts? I've run Windows Defender, Malware Bytes, and another antivirus program. They say the computer currently does not have any virus problems. What should I do with those 39 Quarantined programs? Should I "Delete" or "Block" them?

Why does Medicat install to usb trigger multiple viruses on install by win11 defender ? Not installing.

Good, because it sounds like you shouldn't even be running a computer! Many of the applications show up as a threat to AV programs because of what they are "capable" of doing, not because of what they do! You'll get the same AV reactions with ANY All In One type USB repair programs. If you watch the video, you're informed it will react but is safe!
