Excuse me, could you please clarify if it's actually possible to flash Windows operating systems using Etcher? I've heard that Etcher is a popular tool for creating bootable USB drives, but I'm not entirely sure if it supports Windows ISO files. If it does, would the process be similar to flashing other types of operating systems, or are there any specific steps or considerations I should be aware of? I'd appreciate any guidance you can provide on this matter.

Regarding the question about Etcher writing Windows ISOs, it's important to note that Etcher is not designed to handle the extra treatment required to make Windows images bootable.
