(07-28-2020, 02:55 PM)vishalvodro I have Successfully been able to get Windows 10 VHD to Run from Ventoy, This is How I did it.First this is my O/S Windows 10 Pro .And I have used a USB 3 Portable SSD for Ventoy And another one for WinToUsb, although you could use any external portable HDD OR Flash Drive.Ventoy was installed and then Formated to NTFS and Create a Ventoy Partition.Then Copied a vhd bootimage to \Ventoy.From Windows I Used WinToUsb and Created the VHD From the Currently Installed O/S ( Windows 10 Pro ).Made that a Fixed Size 50gb and as a VHD.When that was finished I simply Rebooted with that Usb SSD of Windows.Then let it update Drivers etc and Reboot.Check again for any drivers etc and reboot.When Windows Update Says You\re up to date, Then just do normal settings like in control panel , Network Sharing , check programs and features etc.Installed CCleaner and Tidy up the system.Shut Down the Computer and Reboot to your Normal Windows.Locate the VHD File on the SSD and Copy it to The Ventoy Folder on other ( Ventoy ) SSD.Reboot from the Ventoy SSD and Run the Windows.vhd from there.It Works for me , like a charm.

===============================
Today I've tested successfully booting WIN-10_LITE.VHD from VENTOY.
Here's what I did:
1.Install Windows-10 (I tried with Lite Version) using Virtual Box on VHD (Dynamic Disk).
2.Put grubfm_multiarch.iso in VENTOY.
Optional : If you have enough space in your VENTOY Disk, then Copy VHD file else you can locate from VENTOY to your Internal HDD
3.Boot Ventoy.
4.Run grubfm_multiarch.iso
5.Locate the VHD & Boot from it.
P.S. As off now VHD Boot is possible only through grubfm_multiarch.iso, if the Developer of VENTOY could implement this feature then it would be another BANG for us...
