Using Easy2Boot, we build the ultimate USB Toolkit. Download it at
www.easy2boot.com/download/
Though this video does not cover it, a lot of people have asked if this supports UEFI support...Yes, It does! See the information in this link - www.easy2boot.com/uefi-mbr-a1... I plan on doing a video with a tutorial on this in the future...as soon as I find the time!
I would like to offer my deepest thanks to the RUclips user steve6375. He is the developer of this software, and has been invaluable to answering questions that people have had in the comments section. Check out his channel right here - / steve6375
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Based on a few comments that I've gotten, I think a lot of people don't fully understand the purpose of this device. I'm getting people saying "Noooo don't put all of your critical data on this one device!"
Um...it's an all in one I.T. toolkit. It's so you can have your tools in one easy convenient place, like, your pocket. Put your critical data somewhere safe, like, not your pocket, and make backups.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As some have pointed out, there are some ISOs that won't boot. Usage my vary, but almost everything I've tried has worked. Here's a list of ISOs that have been tested by the developer. www.easy2boot.com/add-payload...
Also, (very few people) have left comments saying something like "This is a virus". To that, I say if you don't trust it, don't use it. But if you're going to accuse a man's software, do it with proof. Steve has worked very hard on this software, and offers it for free, and is offering free support, to boot. He has been very transparent with being the developer. Online Scanners especially Totalvirus reports false positives. Here's the word about this from steve6375;
"The AV false positives are usually due to the self-extracting exe wrapper. InnoSetup which is used by many developers (and some malware!). If you download the zip file you can unzip the contents and check the E2B files yourself. Because E2B is revised and improved every month or so, it is pointless trying to get the AV vendors to whitelist E2B. On some days Windows Defender can decide that E2B is 'malware' too, depending on how it feels on that day! If sites like MajorGeeks, FossHub, Softpedia, etc. carry it, then you should be fairly safe to assume it isn't really malware. Since E2B is downloaded about 2000 times each day and has been around for 6 years, it should be OK for you to use.
Try it yourself - get a bunch of harmless .exe files and make a self-extracting .exe file from them - then submit the exe to VirusTotal and you will probably get loads of false positives too!"
I personally made my USB stick over 8 months ago, and used it on dozens of PCs. I've not experienced any ill effects anywhere, and of everyone who has tried it, no one to my knowledge has reported any malicious effects.
Again, use your best judgement, and ultimately it has to be your own decision to make for yourself.

Backup/Restore/Sync scripts are on the USB drive. You can make a master backup and quickly re-make another USB drive or synchronise all other E2B drives with the Master copy. www.easy2boot.com/make-an-easy2boot-usb-drive/copy-clone-and-e2b-usb-drive/
Does the program work on linux?
Did you have to find and use the "press [?] key for boot menu?" It almost looked like you jumped right to the USB.
@@ych3455 You could use a Windows VM to create the USB, with all honesty, just use a Winodws PC from a friend, family or workplace.
@@habios thanks turns out you can use it as script for linux as mentioned in their website, as for using windows I used to dual boot linux and windows until I figured I was spending all my time in linux so I switched... truth to be told I think it is better for me since I don't play games and don't use software specific to windows most of the things exist in it so here I am...
Thanks for the advice
Got to give this a try.
I hate re-flashing USB drives for each and every distro I install.
Me too!
i have 10 usb stikc and always need another XD
@@Manche-De-Pelle 5 out of 69 sound more like false alarm more than anything.
I have a keychain of commonly used boot media
I don't know why this has suddenly appeared in my recommended, but I am SO happy that it did! I've been wanting something like this for months! I'm going to try it out asap!
That’s why it popped up in your recommended you have probably been searching it on your web browser and you’ve been getting tracked by cookies
As "the computer guy that installs OSs" this is a lifesaver!
Mate, I was literally about to buy a batch of 8Gb USB sticks to hold all the installers and boot utilities I usually use. This is a game changer for me! I suppose I should have guessed such a utility existed, but now I know I'll definitely be making use of this, excellent video!!
It's ok...I feel like I was late to the party with this too! When I discovered it, I was blown away!
I would love to see a weekly upload commitment from you. The content is just next level stuff and this channel could grow exponentially with some consistent uploads.
Thanks for the kind words, Jessey. I would love to see that too, but right now things like work and family keep that from happening. Hopefully someday, because I have a lot of fun doing it!
After watching this video, I would have expected you to have tens of thousands of subs!
I like your logic, Bob. :D
Hey Logic Bob, what kind of Ancap are you? Moral Absolutist? Moral Nihlist? Christian Libertarian? Just curious.
I didn't think there was such an alternative. Thanks for sharing ! Now I won't have to format or burn my USB anymore. Props to you !
this is perfect!!! now i can have all my flash drives freed up and just have one usb drive as my tool kit instead of all 12 that i have lol. Thanks a million for this.
The editing and execution on this video is amazing. I'm subscribed immediately.
Thanks! I enjoy the video production side of things much more than I enjoy the tech
Confused how I've never came across this before. This is awesome and a massive space and time saver. Will make my life and ThinkPad addiction much easier to manage! Thanks :-)
I am using this for a year now and I am so happy with it :) it made my pro life easier
A must for us who like to test multiple distros with persistent partitions.
I carry gandalfs, sergei strelec, bobombs windows builds, hirens and eset recovery isos, and win10 installer on my e2b. So handy!
Searching for this for a months...thank you man ! Watchout for corona stay safe !
I'm working from home and self isolating as much as possible. The only Corona I want is from the local carry-out.
Er...Waitaminute...I don't drink...
Regardless, you stay safe, too!
Where has this been all my life.... Wish I knew this existed back when I was a kid
AWESOME , YOU REALLY HELPED ME MERGE MY MULTIPLE PENDRIVE TO 1 SINGLE ONE DRIVE. THANKS FROM RAJ INFOTECH, MUMBAI INDIA
That looks like a great idea of only having one thumb drive and I already have 5 that I know of and some of them have the same thing on them.
my god.... you really are a lifesaver!! love the part where you only need to put the iso. This thing is easier than rufus!!!!
For many years I've been using multiple USB flash drives and said to myself there's got to be a more efficient way this time around. Thank you for sharing this info in a simple yet amazing video, well done!
Hey William, when I made this video, I hadn't heard of another option out there called "Ventoy", I haven't had time to look into it myself, but a lot of people have left comments to use that instead. I can't personally endorse one option over another, because I haven't personally tried both.
Thanks for watching!
Been using Yumi to make Multi-Boot USBs for a couple years... but this looks even easier! Gonna try it for sure!
Yep, same here... This looks much more straightforward!
I struggled messing about with YUMI for days trying to get it to do what I want and to be honest I got close, the interface is nicer for YUMI but E2B just wins hands down for everything else. People see me booting up E2B and you can see on their face they are saying "Oh shit he's serious" and i'm like "Yeah.. it just boots things for me, it's not Skynet".
"Have you ever just wanted one magic usb stick that will do it all" Um....yea.
Thank you.
I had to set my usb stick separately for each os i wanted to install.
Now i cat set it up for multi propose os installations.
Very useful.
Thanks again for this tutorial.
that is an amazing tip for everyone!! thank you for this video, nice editing and in general 10/10 you should have more subscribers and views for sure!! keep it up you got it all to boom.
I'll try that, I appreciate your efforts
I've used multi-boot USB for a while, however getting Hirens and Linux to coexist is near impossible (who knew Windows would be such a prima donna?), so I've resorted to keeping them on separate drives. This looks promising.
DJ Shuffle have you tried YUMI multiboot tool? I've been using for years that and only have a few problems with some Linux spin-offs like Fedora mate Compiz or sparkylinux gameover, other than that it works great and it even have EFI and legacy boot versions of YUMI
Ventoy, my man! multiboot too. Just copy iso files onto the root of the ventoy flash drive once the ventoy iso is burned to the flash drive. then boot up and choose which system you want to boot into.
thanks so much, ive been wrestling with etcher, rufus, win2iso ..messed up some drives ... this, so far, has worked great. thanks again.
Veryyyyyyy useful for work and troubleshooting.thank you for making this video... Hats off.
I have to reflash usb drives so often. I definitely need this. I've used a tool to install multiple iso's on one drive but if you want to add one or anything it involves reflashing. This looks like a great tool. Thank you youtube recommendation
how did i not watched this before!😑 It's just amazing.
I have been looking for this for a very long time!
thank you. will be useful in the future, i always had to have multiple thumb drives to do the job now one is enough.
It's cool and useful if you need more than one os
thank you for your knowledge.
Best video of the week for me. Thanks!
Ordered a stick just for that, it should arrive Saturday, I'll try it out, if it works, it'll be a lifesaver! Thanks!
Great little guide. The hiren boot CD of windows installers
Exactly why I placed hirens on mine
i think Ventoy is way better
For those of you who need to have a 32 and 64 bit windows 10, you can have both installers on the same flash drive. It will let you pick at the beginning of the installer which version you want. 32bit or 64bit.
God bless I love you for this video. I have been struggling fighting a corrupted HP factory OEM partition as a side project for at least 2 weeks. I'm pretty sure this will get the job done that I needed without going into a long story.
I wish i could buy you a beer.
Thanks...but I don't drink! Just leave a thumbs up instead. :D
@@LowDoughTech 1,000 miles ahead of you there!
As a funny side note: I don't drink either! 🤣 I would legit share this mean pot of coffee though!
Great Job! Excellent presentation and VERY useful information. I have seen various versions of this type of software and have only recently tried to make a "universal key" USB. I wasn't aware that there were so many viable/working different solutions out there for this age-old problem.
I just hit the 'subscribe' button, and will be looking forward to see what else you have to teach me.
Best regards,
Scott Edward Logan (Fellow G33k and System Distro Hopper)
Glad it was helpful!
Just clicked this video randomly after learning about rufus. Never had such luck in my entire life
I laughed uncontrollably at 1:26 that perfect blend of all the wrong people is amazing 😂
I wish I had known about this before I purchased my iodd-2541. It seems to do the same thing except I can use the iodd-2541 to become both a storage drive and optical disk drive at the same time. Live and Learn. Thanks for sharing.
That's pretty interesting regardless. I had never heard of the iodd-2541.
E2B is designed to work on an an IODD. That's why it uses the \_ISO folder as its main folder! You can use them together!
www.easy2boot.com/make-an-easy2boot-usb-drive/using-e2b-with-a-zalman-ve200/
That's a really nice solution, thank you for the tip.
i have been using multi system ..still from the pendrive .com website . but after seeing this easy3boot really makes things a lot easier .
i will give it a try
what I find more surprising is that these people did not get your clever attempt at silliness on the "get her done"/jeff/Ray its almost like they have never seen the picture of Patrick Stewart with the quotations of "may the force be with you" signed by Gandalf.
But, it got me a lot of comments and some responses to those comments, which spreads my video...so, I can't complain!
Thanks! That was very informative. I'm going to give it a whirl right now.
I have a Win10 install thumb drive... Another for Ubuntu... Another with commonly used apps (many the same as yours). What a great idea to have everything together!
this is excellent.. im looking for this, fora very long-time
Right on! E2B is excellent software.
Just a sidenote: You can also use an app called DriveDroid on rooted Android phones and then store various ISOs on that phone and mount them as the phone's storage. Tested on Nexus 5X and Samsung Galaxy S7, works pretty well
Oh! Very nice! I will definitely check this out!
@@LowDoughTech just be aware that it doesn't work with all kernels, you might need to flash a custom one that supports drivedroid: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2196707
I have used this app.. this works very well
Galaxy s7 you say?
SM-G930F?
Did you said Nexus 5X, cuz I'm watching the video on one...
Thank you for this informative video!
That tool looks very useful, thanks!
Audacity (for minor sound editing and capture), Data Recovery Wizard, Hex Editor, IPScan, PicSizer, SysInternals AutoRuns. I also carry OBS (Open Broadcast Software) so I can capture unusual happenings on computers I am troubleshooting if I need to - never use it though.
I like to have hddllf (a low-level formatting tool) as a doomsday recovery aid.
Ok this is awesome!!!
it works perfectly it is an amazing program !! with a lot of documentation
extremely helpful. Great video man
It suggests a better extension than .iso, most of the time you just wait or hit enter, occasionally you press y and enter to accept the suggestion. I is only used if those don't work.
Ah, that's good to know! I've only ever used .iso's, and I'm impatient, so I've never waited. Thanks for the tip!
I was trying to put together an all in one and found it hard to have this be possible, even partioning or using YUMI which was for distros/ISO files.. I have a 128GB i use for school and multiple other things. THIS is perfect and never heard of portable apps.com. That is a great resource. You sir are a gentleman and a scholar. thank you!
I love this a must have in a domain Environment is hirens boot cd to unlock forgotten support accounts when PC was removed from AD
I'm searching this kind of thing.. Thank u man
It would be awesome to complete it with a Windows2Go Installation, so you could boot Linux and Windows with certain utilities installed and ready to run.
Thanks a lot for the video. Now I'm sure I should buy one or two big storage USB's instead of multiple low storage ones. Way more practical.
You can add multiple WindowsToGo VHDs or partition images. Also LiveCD Linux ISOs (with persistence for many of them) or complete install Linux OS's in image partitions.
I like a program called Glary Utilities. Has lots of useful stuff built in.
This is amazing! Thank you.
Not only do you look a lot like one of my favourite actors (Roddie McDowell), this video is kick-ass! Love it. Have subscribed. Thank you!
I've never heard that before, but I can see it now.
Well....he did pay Cornelius as well as so many others 😊
i just made one after watching this. I have 32 GB Pendrive to spare , though
I have used Easy2Boot for a while, and it seemed good...but I've found an annoying number of systems that the BIOS doesn't like modern big USB3.0 thumbdrives as bootable disks (even single-boot USB3.0 drives).
Ultimately I had to suck up and buy an IODD virtual CD USB hard-drive enclosure, which seems to work much more reliably on all systems. It can be forced to USB2.0 mode for machines that don't like USB3.0 and it can simulate a CD-ROM (or hard-drive or floppy) that seems to make most systems much happier.
I've heard of the IODD, I plan on buying one sometime and doing a review.
@@LowDoughTech - IODD will probably send you a IODD SSD Mini if you promise to do a review on RUclips. Contact them (or me for their contact details).
This is the best every. I use to flash ISO’s to a usb and change it based on what I needed it for. No more now! One Stick to Rule Them All!
Amazing job, you provided my old laprop a new life, thanks. Very usefull
Actually it is Larry The Cable Guy that made the phrase "Get er done" famous. great video!
I think that was the joke.
@@SublimeArchi Also the picture is Ray Stevens. Love the subtle humor.
@@turbo1gts ty, was just...wait..was he joking there?
Any Chance of getting a 'List' of all the applications you have in your Tools folder... your !Installer, and !Scripts folders look interesting :-)
thanks for sharing this is great tool, and i have been using for a while now -absolutely great programs.
I have dropped all technical work in favor of coding but this is really handy. I used to use a freemium piece of software called SARDU that had a nice windows GUI to download & add ISOs to your usb stick. The end result looked pretty similar.
Hiren's Boot is still does most of the things and next to it i just need a win10 installer.
Can you provide a link for download??

7:00 It's missing a "a" in PortableApps :)
Yeah... another good reason that they should have kept annotations. I didn't even notice it until someone else pointed it out a couple of days ago...6 months into the life of the video, haha.
PERFECT! Not only did you feature LINUX as the test OS for this video but you also feature MY HP T5740E thinclients!! And Porteus Linux to boot! LOL! Brilliant!! This is nice software I hope I can use it in LINUX as I do not use Win10

I also have a video on those HP Thin Clients here - ruclips.net/video/xk_dgmCaHMc/видео.html
Very useful and helpful presentation. Thanks!
This was.... AMAZING!
IODD 2531 to mount and boot ISO files or if you want more, IODD 2541 like I have. Yes they cost a bit but the versatility goes far beyond this DIY method.
Don't take this as me shitting on this method. I like it for those who are budget limited for PC repair tools.
The other upside to this is carrying a pendrive in your pocket rather than a 2.5 inch hdd. I carry my E2B drive on my keyring, so it's always with me.
I can see the best use for IODD for an IT department to have on hand.
LOL! No, the "Here's your sign" guy is Bill Engvall! Know your comedians!
That's the guy who played Paul Blart?
your a true guru, i used to use yumi but was to complicated then i used winsetupfromusb and its worked was easier to use but it was still burn it on the the usb drive your may friend are a life saver
Nice! This'll make things easier for me before I'm using YUMI
"Get her done" alllllllmost annoyed me. Then I noticed that was Ray Stevens in the picture and realized it was his attempt at the "Goku is the best Pokemon trainer" picture of Yugi meme.
Soooo, you're saying at Timestamp 1:26 that he knew that "Git her done" was really coined by Larry The Cable Guy?!!?
=1k for the Big Trouble in Little China reference.
Six months later, someone got it. :D
Great vid and good to know.
Thank you.
Now with this quarentine I'll have plenty of time to format and partition my laptop and install a fresh copy of Windows, give linux a try, install VMs and more. I have a few ISO's this app will come in handy. Thanks.
There is one better: " VENTOY " The Final Solution USB .
That's been recommended by a lot of people. I plan on testing it out when I have time.
Ventoy is easier to setup and for modern computers. Easy2Boot is more on compatibility with the older computer system with support for modern computers.
@@LowDoughTech Y.U.M.M.Y USB Tool
Having tried a lot of them, I've found the biggest headache is systems that won't boot off a modern USB3.0 drive or too high a capacity one. Finally sucked up and got an IODD virtual CD enclosure and stuck a SSD in it...now I can click thru and force it to appear as a plain old USB2.0 CD-ROM/Floppy/USB drive or a USB3.0 CD-ROM/Floppy/USB drive. It seems to work more reliably on fussy BIOS.
