Getting started
What BootForge does, what you need, and a five-minute first run.
Make a bootable drive
Connect a drive over OTG, prepare it as a Ventoy USB, and tune the layout.
Add & manage images
Browse the catalog, add ISO files, organise your library, and verify checksums.
Boot a PC
Open the boot menu, use the Ventoy menu, and fix common boot problems.
Maintain a drive
Manage files, update or reinstall Ventoy, and turn a drive back into a plain USB stick.
App & settings
Appearance, language, downloads, and what BootForge Pro unlocks.
Safety & trust
How destructive actions are guarded, privacy, and the open-source software BootForge uses.
