    If your PC can boot from a NTFS formatted USB drive, you don't need this script; all depends on the firmware of your PC.

    The implemented correction is incomplete. Change lines 172-173 by :
    Code:
    Try{Clear-Disk $USB -RemoveData -RemoveOEM -Confirm:$False -ErrorAction Stop
        Set-Disk $USB -PartitionStyle MBR  -ErrorAction Stop} 
    
    (add -ErrorAction Stop)

    The complete updated script :
    Code:
    <# : standard way of doing hybrid batch + powershell scripts
    @title Win10+ Setup Disk 2.8 &color 3E
    @powershell -noprofile "$param='%*';$ScriptPath='%~f0';iex((Get-Content('%~f0') -Raw))" &exit/b
