Ventoy - we gotta admit it, rufus is kinda bad given it allows 1 bootable ISOs, whilst the limit for ventoy is your USB’s capacity.
RAT removal tools - one of the attacker’s biggest weaknesses is when you pull out that damn ethernet cord, after you disconnect yourself you can look for the rat with antiviruses that work offline or tools from Sysinternals that allow you to look deeper in the system. I suggest also checking stuff like registries and your startup folder, besides that your temp or appdata/public folders are also worth checking out.
GPU Drivers (AMD / NVIDIA) - this is especially good for homes with quite terrible internet bandwidth, or just those moments when your gpu drivers just decide to give up
Network Drivers - you never know when you’re gonna need them. no links for this because every driver is different
Medicat USB - pretty fucking massive in size, it contains a lot of tools, check it out for yourself.
Memtest86 - for that used RAM you bought which you’re unsure if it’s even stable
EaseUS Partition Master/Other WinPE tools - Windows Portable Edition is exceptionally useful for the moments where you can’t boot into your OS, or you’re trying to reset a password for a user account etc.
USB Boot OS-es - I’m talking about distros such as Tails OS, max opsec :sunglasses: but still it’s quite nice to have a liveboot with shit like GParted for those desperate moments.
You can find most, if not all these tools for free.
