I found a nice tutorial, it seems to known what it's talking about, so I am going to try and follow it:

https://www.rmprepusb.com/tutorials/win7onusb

There are also tools already mentioned by Paul that claim they can also do some of it, might be worth investigating if tutorial above fails:

Apperently WinToUsb is not only for ISO's but also for VHD unfortunately not VMDK, but might be possible to convert to VHD, however I am not sure if VHD can support multi paritions properly, and windows does use at least two partitions.

Going to collect links for further future investigation down below:

Some unbuntu ionformation that may also apply to windows, has links to other tools like netbootin:

Some tool, claiming cloning capabilities:

Some information about windows to go drivers, I am fuzzy about this:

https://www.easyuefi.com/wintousb/fa...ed-Drives.html

A thread about wintousb and some kind of issue he runs into:

https://www.easyuefi.com/forums/show...pid=316#pid316

From the tutorial above, some tool with scripts and such:

The wintousb tool mentioned by Paul, it does have a free version but also a payed version:

Fow now I am kinda done with these tools claiming to do all kinds of things with little success, first I will try the above tutorial to see if messing with windows will make it work.

Cause I already did the installation, conversion, burning to usb, just need to fix it, don't need to re-do all of that.

Something that would be working/compatible with vmware would be very nice.

Bye for now,
Skybuck.
