I have a lenovo idepad s340 laptop with freedos on board. There was a problem installing windows 10. I tried: change the boot priority in BIOS and enter through f12 in the boot menu, select a USB flash drive there and freedos was loaded again. The flash drive on other PCs is recognized and the download from it goes, so apparently not broken.

I bought a laptop with freedos
I downloaded a Windows image I
created a bootable USB flash drive via rufus I
went into the BIOS, enabled uefi (without legacy), disabled safe boot (just in case)
Found boot from usb options, enabled
Usb legacy also enabled I
went to boot menu f11 (f12)
Installed
updating bios will help Windows MB It
is also worth trying to install Windows through legacy, the disk will have to be converted to mbr
And you will need to enable legacy bios mode
Push the flash drive into usb 2.0 ports (black, instead of blue) It is
also worth trying a different image

2 weeks ago I faced the same problem but in the desktop HP Desktop Pro A 5JP27ES FreeDOS. We bought Win 10 Pro, with our own, literally out of the box, flash drives could not be installed, no matter what shamanism I tried. Solution: downloaded and created using the Media Creation Tool, then everything started up without any additional gestures.
I did not understand the reasons, but I made a conclusion: no more "white assemblies"!
