      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.

        I've had success using CLI instead.

        sudo umount /dev/sdb1
        sudo woeusb --tgt-fs NTFS --device Win10_1903_V1_English_x64.iso /dev/sdb

            Same result

              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 aborted
              

              Instead of

              Unmounting and removing "/media/woeusb_source_1559784507_8150"...
              Unmounting and removing "/media/woeusb_target_1559784507_8150"...
              You may now safely detach the target device
              Done :)
              The target device should be bootable now

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

                  It happened twice so far with the same USB.

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