Re:Rufus: Reliable USB Formatting Utility by Nexxxeh on Saturday May 08, 2021 @08:27AM (#27086527)
I wouldn't say "far better". It's different. Rufus is superb for specific tasks.

I especially like the interface, including the automatic download of the current Windows 10 ISO. I find the whole process (and more importantly, walking others through the process) a breeze.

I like the cheat mode codes that let me walk people through tasks easily, but still retaining functionality I want for myself. https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/wiki/FAQ#Power_keysCheat_mo... Alt+E being one that I use myself, but absolutely would not want enabled for a novice user.

That's not to take anything away from Ventoy (although I'm an IODD user myself). Just saying one is better or worse doesn't feel fair to me.
