I created a Ventoy USB stick, worked great, I needed more room on the VENTOY 1st partition for more ISO files, so I used MiniTool Partition Wizard to shrink a 3rd partition I had after the EFI partition, move the VTOYEFI and increase the size of the VENTOY partition.
Attempting to boot to it threw an error that is was not a standard Ventoy installation and it failed. It was a simple enough fix, I simply deleted the VTOYEFI partition (I used MiniTool again) and then did a Non Destructive Install using the Ventoy2Disk.exe. After this it worked again.
Why is Ventoy so picky about moving the EFI partition? I've moved around an EFI partition for other boot tools, like AGFM / Easy3Boot without issue. I also notice that you can't increase the size of the EFI partition either.
Curious as to why this is like this.
