The Reliable USB Formatting Utility
Supports multiple filesystems (FAT/NTFS/exFAT/ext2/ext3/UDF/ReFS) and bootable image formats, with specialized features like Windows 11 TPM bypass, persistent Linux partitions, and UEFI-NTFS hybrid boot. Handles ISO extraction, disk image creation (VHD/VHDX/FFU), bad block detection including fake drives, and can download official Windows/UEFI Shell media directly. Built as a portable Windows GUI application with no installation required, compiled via Visual Studio 2022 or MinGW.
