I have used it, yes. You need to download the ISO files to the USB drive and put them in a folder. Ventoy is useful, but I discovered it doesn't launch the Windows 11 ISO gracefully, so I had to stop using it for that application. 

I find it somewhat foolish that you paid money for it. It's a free utility on GitHub. If your son was to support the project, in the future, please just donate directly to the project on GitHub and leave bloodsucking 3rd party middlemen on eBay out of it.

Does anyone on the PLUG list
have experience using Ventoy?

A friend used his Ventoy USB flash
stick to install Linux Mint on a
used thinkpad t470 that I purchased.

But I then discovered that the newer
Linux Mint version that he installed
does not have many KDE capabilties
that I have always had on my older
thinkpad laptops.

So I downloaded Ventoy from
https://ventoy.net ... hoping to
install kubuntu to get those valuable
KDE capabilities that I need.

When I tried to install Ventoy, the
  system said: "Congratulations! Ventoy
has been successfully installed to the
device" ... However, the USB is blank.

So, I purchased a Ventoy USB from ebay:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/364756232958

But it came with no instructions, and
I cannot figure out how to get it to
boot on the used thinkpad t480 that I
purchased with win-10 installed.

I use Linux exclusively and have zero
experience with windblows.
