Ventoy is an open source tool that lets you create a bootable USB drive for ISO files. Now thereβs no need to format the disk again and again or to extract anything-- with Ventoy simply copy the ISO file to the USB drive and boot it. You can copy several ISO files at a time, and Ventoy will offer a boot menu where you can select them. Itβs incredibly easy to use, with Legacy BIOS and UEFI being supported in the same way. There are over 260 ISO files tested, and a βVentoy Compatibleβ concept has been introduced to help support any ISO file.

Among several other similar projects I know, this is the easiest to use. Format the pen drive, copy your ISOs (including windows install) and boot. The only very small inconvenience is that the ISO file name cannot contain special characters and you need to rename them. I am very grateful to developers that are capable of creating software like this and kind enough to share it for free.

I think this is the easiest multi boot system I have seen so far. It simply works
