## Features

YUMI is able to create a multiboot USB Drive using Windows[3], create a Live USB consisting of Linux distributions and Windows Installers and System Tools and Antivirus utilities, use persistent overlay images for saving changes made from the running environment back to the USB, provide additional information regarding each distribution, including category and website URL and download link for quick reference, use formatting methods that allow the USB drive to remain accessible for traditional storage purposes, and try using unlisted[clarification needed] ISO files can also be tried against several options for unlisted ISO files.[4]

## Reception

Tom's Hardware editor sparkinwords says "YUMI or Your Universal Multiboot Installer is a free tool that allows you to create a bootable installation USB drive."[5] CNET editor says "YUMI isn't much to look at, but performs as an incredibly powerful tool for creating bootable USB drives. Not only does it let you hold multiple operating systems, but also it lets you install anti-virus and performance-boosting utilities. If you need to rescue an old or infected PC, this program will be the hero you want."[6] Lifehacker Whitson Gordon says "Even better is YUMI, which lets you put multiple live CDs on one flash drive—meaning you can combine all your favorite rescue discs, Linux distros, and other tools and put them in your pocket.".[7] Gary Newell "Here's how to use YUMI to install multiple operating systems onto a single USB drive in Windows 10, 8.1, 8, and 7."[8]
