But in all honesty it's very easy to make a bootable windows installer USB drive manually. Just make a primary bootable FAT32 partition on the USB drive and copy the files from the ISO onto it. Done.
Yeah on windows I always do it manually because it's so fast. But I always use ntfs, never fat32.
Isn't fat32 partition needed for UEFI bootable installer?
I guess not, because I always specifically do fs=ntfs in disk part when I make one.
Are you positive you're booting UEFI mode using that USB stick?

@phlipelder Yeah I'm a fan of Rufus on windows but like the Fedora media writer on Fedora
But Fedora Media Writer on Fedora can't write Windows media.
I believe @JaredBusch had a post on this a while ago. Found it

Not working for me. I tried two different USB drives. It is just booting to a grub menu. Unless I am supposed to launch something from here.

Not sure why but I'm getting this message using the CLI.
/usr/bin/woeusb: line 1676: echo: write error: Invalid argument The command "exit 0" failed with exit status "1", program is prematurely abortedInstead of

@black3dynamite I've not seen that happen. This is every time?

Try another USB, maybe there is something wrong with that one?
