BootForge

Create a bootable multiboot USB drive from your Android phone. No PC, no root, no ads, no coins.

Needs a phone with USB OTG, a USB stick and an OTG cable or adapter. Making drives is free; a one-time Pro unlock adds one-tap in-app ISO downloads and extras.

Plug in a USB stick over OTG and write an ISO to USB straight from the phone: Windows 11, Linux, or rescue images. Prepare it for Ventoy-compatible multiboot, keep several systems on one drive, then boot a broken PC from it, with clear step-by-step boot instructions for your machine.

WHY BOOTFORGE

A bootable USB maker built like a rescue tool, not an ad-gated toy:

• No ads, no coins, no gamified unlocks

• Works offline with ISO files already on your phone

• Minimal permissions: just the drive and the files you pick

• Clear warnings before anything is erased, never a silent format

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Prepare a USB stick as a bootable, Ventoy-compatible multiboot drive over OTG

• Copy ISO images to it: Windows, Linux, rescue and diagnostic tools

• Keep several systems on one stick and choose at boot time

• Write a single ISO or raw .img byte for byte, with read-back verification

• Verify SHA-256 checksums so a corrupted image never surprises you

• Browse the files on it, down to the boot partition

• Update Ventoy in place while keeping your images

• Preview the boot menu, built from your own drive, and theme it

NEW: BACK UP & RESTORE A WHOLE DRIVE

Save a USB stick to one image file (.img.gz, or a plain .img) and write it back later, from the app or from a PC with a tool like Rufus. Skipping empty space makes a mostly empty stick much faster.

WINDOWS INSTALLER, YOUR WAY

Turn your own Windows ISO into a bootable USB installer for modern UEFI PCs, including with Secure Boot on. Setup options pick the edition, skip the Microsoft account and automatic BitLocker, and start Windows in your language, where your Windows build allows it. It never wipes a disk: you choose where Windows goes.

PERSISTENCE FOR LIVE LINUX

Create a persistence file for Ubuntu and Ubuntu-based distros like Mint and Zorin, pair it with an image, and your changes survive a reboot.

CURATED CATALOG: FREE FOR EVERYONE

Browse 90+ OS images with official source links, versions, and checksums: Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Fedora, Debian, Arch, SystemRescue, GParted Live, Clonezilla, MemTest86+, and more. For Windows, BootForge links you to Microsoft's official download page.

BUILT FOR THE WORST DAY

• Explicit confirmation before any destructive operation

• Real progress with speed and ETA, no fake progress bars

• Long jobs keep running while the app is in the background

• Errors explain what happened and what to try next

• Boot-key guide by PC manufacturer (UEFI and BIOS)

• Partition layout and a local diagnostics report, never uploaded, names and paths removed

BOOTFORGE PRO: ONE-TIME UNLOCK

• In-app ISO download queue (pause and resume)

• The full boot-menu theme gallery, and your own picture behind the menu

• Edit text files on the drive

• Choose which Ventoy version to install

Everything safety-critical stays free, and so do backup, persistence, Windows Setup options, all boot menu settings, drive names, volume labels and update alerts.

HONESTY & COMPATIBILITY

Supported image types and known limits are stated plainly in the app. Results depend on your phone's OTG support, the cable or adapter, the drive itself, and the target PC's firmware. Raw .img writes are exact byte-for-byte copies; whether the result boots depends on the image itself.

BootForge is an independent app, not affiliated with or endorsed by the Ventoy project or by Rufus. Ventoy is used under its license; notices are available in the app.

BootForge Pro is a one-time unlock, not a subscription. Install BootForge before the day you need it.
