I used Hiren's for years but then found "Sergei Strelec"! It is basically Hirens, plus a bunch more and being updated on the regular. It has been solid. Curious how Medicat compares. Great post!
One great thing about medicat is that you can remove all tools you don't use or you don't want to use and add tools you use. Since it utilizes Ventoy you can add any other tool you use but it's not included so you can literary tailor it to your needs. I am gonna make something like medicat usb for myself but i will tailor it for my needs.
What a great little tool all in one form or another, some recognizable from others. I remember having image files on DVD and CD's i've burned then it all got stolen, glad to know i can get it all back again all in one neat package.
I still have several different versions on CD in my old (and hopefully never to be used again) CD case (it has a handle and holds 80 disks, was a lifesaver / everyday work tool back in the day), plus a USB DVD-Drive (and a couple of working SATA, and even ATA drives), plus many other CD's and DVD's from back in the day before booting from USB and installing/running things from USB was possible or realistic. It is amazing, shocking and stunning as to just how much has changed and how far we have come in just the last 20-years.! PS: Just subscribed.
I did not catch mention of the size of the download or the required USB size. For anyone else wondering, the download size as of December '23 is 22 GB. I would guess a minimum of a 64 GB USB would suffice for install. An ISO that we could boot from DroidDrive on our phones would be awesome and I expect with some tinkering is totally possible. Thanks for the tip on a cool tool!
I personally know the guy that makes this tool. It’s pretty good at that and very kind to share for free no profit or donations requested. Do him a favor and give him a thanks on the Gameboy community where he post it to download.
Just curious, since the tool seems interesting. How can it be free, when there's software as Killdisk, EaseUS applications (etc.), when they costs money? Do you have to subscripe to these yourself manually or are they cracked? I dont suppose he'll be able to like lent the software to us, or am I wrong?
Outstanding! I’ve been using Hirens Boot CD for as long as I can remember. My first one was 4. something. I can’t count the times that boot disk saved my bacon. This looks like an amazing bit of kit. I’m definitely adding this to my toolbox. Thanks for the great video.
Those games are useful, as someone who did tech support and had to sit around waiting for progress bars to finish wishing there was some way to help pass the time.
When I was in IT the field techs had these flash drives, including images of all the PCs & Laptops we had deployed in our company. Our in office Helpdesk were able to do a network boot a remote PC into this image from their desk. Real TIME SAVER.
I agree with you. I was using Hiren's BootCD and live linux isos when it comes to resque files etc. I wanted to try out Medicat but it was pain in the a**! 1) Download size is too large. 2) It didn't load Win10 PE in my case. 3) I think there is not enough tools and programs . Sergei Strelec is best so far. I can even add more programs in to it.
I tried to create this Medicat usb and it was clearly a danger, I've never in my life seen so many trojans and malware packed into one place in my life. All virus databases say medicats is not safe, yet... why are youtubers pushing it like a great tool? I don't understand it. I'll just stick to the Hirens boot dvd, not this icky feeling, unsafe feeling, made by a greasy fat criminal looking... Medicats usb.
im a basic and maybe up to average user i find this video a little bit advanced info to digest but anyway its still interesting to explore these kind of topics for non it pc users.
That would a must for computer users, However the question is how sure are we that it doesnt have a malware embeded on the USB? If you can find a way to check that for malware, viruses please do share it with us.
This is from a very respected member of the community... Sure, there could still be a virus, but his goodwill and respect in the community is too high for him to consider risking it. And people have been scanning this for viruses from a long time. Nobody has yet found anything.
My antivirus/malware (windows defender) went crazy while installing this, with 5+ issues HackTool:Win64/Passview HackTool:Win32/ProductKey!MSR HackTool:Win32/Defendercontrol. etc.... It might make sense to turn off defender while installing...assuming you trust.
@@bfmvshinigami you know, medicat uses ventoy, and ventoy is quite suspicious because of the closed source blobs issue that is currently being investigated.
I Always used UBCD 4 Windows it is useful when it comes hard drive issues. Also Ghost Symantic. Its very old one but still useful. I can customize even I can put menu wallpaper or even your picture.
Thanks for sharing. I’m a Linux guy, so I use mostly Linux rescue isos, but I’m gonna spin this up so I’m ready when mom needs help! I can just add isos that I prefer. That being said, a great LINUX collection of rescue tools is long in the tooth - maybe I’ll get motivated. :)
Medicat Rescue has several linux isos and distros with tools as well...just fire it up...I run it on a 500GB ssd and add additional iso as I see fit besides what comes already with Medicat...its awesome...
@@quesengar yea; I noticed that it already had most of the rescue tools that I use. I did have some issues with adding folders, but got thru that too. Nice!
Have you tried Sergei's Stelec Windows 8, 10, 11 PE? (Yes, it has 4 boot images: W8x86, W10x86x64,W11x64)... Natively compatible with UEFI and Non UEFI boot. Not so bundled as MediCAT, but still fit in a 8GB Flash Drive.
Probably because it has cr@cked apps, such as EaseUS apps, etc. Many of those softwares are paid. Also, a lot of system tweaker tools could be detected as threats or deemed dangerous.
I just built a MediCat USB repair drive on a cheap 30gb drive. It took 3 days for the build and verify to complete on my W11 system. I guess the cheap drive must be appallingly slow but three days seems a bit much. Anyhow, the Acronis utility then found unreadable sectors on a brand new 500gb Sovereca SSD I was diagnosing on my neighbour's brand new "gaming" computer. I thought SSDs were basically immune from bad sector reads, especially if new. They are sending a new SSD but I think this PC may be going back to Amazon.
I no longer can find a good boot disk and UBCD can’t be found anymore either and could only find HBCD for a good toolkit. Wow thanx for this!! Well needed for a tech.
I will suggest this to other friend. This will or is one of the best tool that we will have in IT industry rather bring may external hard drive for installations and file checking. 🥰
EaseUS Partition Master works great for cloning OS drives among many other facilities it provides. I've been using it for years. I am an IT professional for over 35 years.
a user on the forum said this: Thursday at 8:47 PM #3,802 I came across this project from a RUclips video who gave it a glowing review as an IT tool. I decided to take a look at the files before I installed it and it is full of malware. Yes, I know there's bound to be a few false positives b/c it contains password cracks, but it is far more than that. The files contain spy ware, exploits, viruses, and trojans. Why in the world would an IT tool contain spy ware and browser exploits in a help guide? Many of the files have been obfuscated in way that is used to hide from AV scanners. Do NOT go plugging this into your work computers unless you are trying to get yourself fired! If you want an IT tool build it yourself or buy it from a reputable company. Scan results attached.
This would've been handy a couple years ago - but now I'm in a more corporate job where, if anything goes wrong, we just reimage the device. But if the CEO loses data and we need to do more intensive stuff, I'll have this on my stick.

Cool utility. I always back my important files outside of the system on external usb, so my way of fixing my computer is just to reformat my drive and reinstall. But I can see how useful this would be for I.T. professionals.
You better off looking into a full backup solution like Acronis TrueImage, Macrium reflect etc. Way better than reformat and install all over and over again.
@@repairman2be250 both of those are good. Macrium comes with an option for self installation of the software needed bundled with the backup image for portability.
Dont forget the Trinity Rescue Kit ;), not as comprehensive, but very useful if your windows password reset tool doesnt work (for whatever reason) TRK is my backup in that situation
Medi cat is actually a custom setup of the Portable apps software. I personally like Portable Apps App . You get to choose the apps you want . Unlike medicat which is preloaded .
This looks amazing but maybe too much for most users. First there are too many apps that all do the same thing. It would be useful if you could pick and choose your favorites while installing. Second many of the tools are buried deep inside other tools/apps like those buried inside portable apps in mini windows 10.
I'll have to give it a try but I remember that often times, a lot of the included utilities wouldn't do that much unless you bought the paid for versions. Some of them just didn't work at all.
@@repairman2be250 to each there own and just cause it’s only 4gb doesn’t mean it sucks medicat tool has a bunch of garbage baked in that I don’t care for either.
This is years ago, the one I had also had all of the Flashdrive makers firmware editing tools, back in the first days of flashdrives the makers would install hidden bloatware that would install on PCs if the flashdrive was left in the drive when booting, & the only way to BURN IT OUT was by using "stolen" copies of their own software. But at the sametime you could remove theirs and install your own, & THAT was the real danger. If you drop a flashdrive in a company parking lot, someone will pick it up, walk inside & plug it into a company PC's USB, 100% of the time. If you're in IT, make sure bootable USB ports are locked down & passworded. Or just make sure your Dad's & Mom's computer is locked down at home.
My initial impression is why are you talking so fast? It does not augur well for the doubtless complex mass of detail to follow, should I not be discouraged from continuing.
good content but it just imparts importance of doing backups - both os and data - with so many tools and so much complexity you may run into some issues like - is the os really fixed entirely? with an image of a clean install you never run into these issues - still a great to have to see what the repair ecosystem is like - all in wonder tools are great - why not just make it into an iso - maybe some other commenters can shed some light on this - just give me the iso
I just have ghost, Windows Dart, Ubuntu and Kaspersky Live boot on USB. Never needed any more than that for offline troubleshooting beyond just reinstallation.
good key to save alot of time working but when you instal bios update It can be dangerous that you lose files that may not be backed up and then you have to start to restore the disk back and it takes much more time and money And sometimes it doesn't work either
nice work... kinda reminds me of the old geek squad recovery tool, except it had multiple malware scanners that would run consecutively. perhaps you could implement something like that?
C Cleaner. There are 2 C's. I know it's small, but for some reason it's like nails on a chalkboard to me. Other than that, I love the video and believe I will love the utility as well.
This reminds me of the good old "Hiren's boot CD". Back in the day I carried that thing everywhere.

He mentioned both in the video. This tool is like Ventoy on steroids like he says 😎 but never tried it.
@@ACOnetwork This is actually a customized Ventoy.
@@dm1i thx. I've been using Ventoy for a year now, just 1 month ago bought 64GB flash key to accomidate all I need 😁
Thanks man, learned something good today.❤
awesome tool bro but can we use it Mini Windows 10 when your OS is running with Windows 11?
Yes
I just have ghost, Windows Dart, Ubuntu and Kaspersky Live boot on USB. Never needed any more than that for offline troubleshooting beyond just reinstallation.
capacity needed for flash drive?? thank you
so this is kinda like a more modern Hiren's boot, nice
keep up the good work
i can't boot to it whey.
Thanks for this knowledge!
good key to save alot of time working but when you instal bios update It can be dangerous that you lose files that may not be backed up and then you have to start to restore the disk back and it takes much more time and money And sometimes it doesn't work either
thank you for sharing this,.., iwill earned more money because of this,,.,
i really liked the rmprepusb customization but this is also really cool!
nice work... kinda reminds me of the old geek squad recovery tool, except it had multiple malware scanners that would run consecutively. perhaps you could implement something like that?
HIREN’s is all you need 👍🏽
C Cleaner. There are 2 C's. I know it's small, but for some reason it's like nails on a chalkboard to me. Other than that, I love the video and believe I will love the utility as well.
Thank you
Thank you for sharing I just subscribe to your channel
went to make this and my anti virus goes nuts!!.. i would think twice b4 trying this
Greate tool for around resolved problem, Thanks a lot
This is very new and will be useful but why would you buys this when you can just use a regular usb and make your own version of this.
It's free, but I just find it suspicious that it requires you to turn off your anti-virus to install it..
Hey, thanks for the review, :D
Can Medicat be installed in an external ssd instead a flash usb?, can we create Windows installers as part of the tool? Thx in advance.
Finally a video i can send people
