Gandalf's PE

[River Valley Computer]

Does anyone have a link to Gandorf that will allow one to download it. Everything we try has no download link.

Thanks in advance.

If you mean Gandalf's PE it stopped being free years ago. Like 10+. It's shareware. That link is on the upper right of every page. If for some reason I need a MS PE I use Strelecs

Gotcha. That explains it. Thanks Mr. Computerland.

He's only asking for $20 US. Dirt cheap for what it does and how many times you'll use it.

Yep - we purchased it yesterday after Mark mentioned it. We just overlooked the Paypal link.

Thanks everyone.

Once I figured it out I also bought mine. While I do support OSS I also support those creating shareware that works. And his PE's all work great.

Gandalf's PE has been one of the most useful tools I've ever had. Great for running Fabs, WRT (and all the tools in my custom tools section) and a whole lot of other cool things on unbootable (or bootable) PC's.

I use Sergei Strelecs on my Ventoy.

I donated about 30 minutes ago from the link on this page that matches Mark's screenshot in post #2 here.

Still haven't received a download link. I sent an email to gandalf50@outlook.com and nicely asked when I should expect it (i.e. was it supposed to be automatic or might be a while)

From what I remember it did take a while. As in donation doesn't trigger an automatic email. And just a reminder check your spam/junk folders

I did get it, it ended up being about an hour since I donated.

You might want to let the source know that they should put a note on the donation page along the lines of, "This process is not fully automatic, and there will be a delay between your donation and receiving your key. That delay is typically no more than X."

In low volume circumstances where a human has to do something, it's worth letting people know that an "instantaneous" response will not be forthcoming, and how long they should wait before any cage rattling is done.
