Oh my word. May I suggest that you reduce your comma usage, and use
simpler shorter sentences? I am finding this email thread very hard to
follow, and I am a native speaker and professional writer/editor.

Oh my word. So many parentheses!

Yes you can keep ordinary files on a Ventoy drive. It won't break it.
I suggest putting them in a subfolder to keep them separate.

If you're moving complex trees of files, I suggest putting the whole
tree into a ZIP file and then copying the zip instead.

[Remainder of epic single-sentence paragraph trimmed]

It is nothing to do with the file format. It depends who made it,
where they released it, and so on. Since AFAICS you haven't told us a
theme for *what*, when and where it came from, or what it's called, we
can't say.
