    I go for C
    bcdedit will use for the earlies windows versions.
    bcdedit will expand bcdboot options.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootcfg
    “In computing, bootcfg is a command on Microsoft Windows NT-based operating systems which acts as a wrapper for editing the boot.ini file.[1] A similar command exists in the Recovery Console for repairing or rebuilding boot configuration files.[1]

    Though NTLDR and boot.ini are no longer used to boot Windows Vista and later versions of Windows NT, they ship with the bootcfg utility regardless. This is to handle boot.ini in the case that a multi-boot configuration with previous versions of Windows exists and needs troubleshooting from within the later operating system.

    Windows Vista and later versions will warn users who run bootcfg that BCDEdit is the correct command to modify its booting options.”

    5- Once the copy is complete, change your focus to the USB drive ( mine is mapped as drive E: ) navigate to the Boot directory and update the boot manager using the following command from an elevated command prompt windows.

    This is the part we was missing.

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>e:

    E:\>CD BOOT

    E:\boot>BOOTSECT.EXE /NT60 D:
    Target volumes will be updated with BOOTMGR compatible bootcode.

    D: (\\?\Volume{75299495-0000-0000-0000-100000000000})

    Successfully updated FAT32 filesystem bootcode.

    Bootcode was successfully updated on all targeted volumes.

    E:\boot>

    Looking at most of the instructions on the internet for creating a bootable USB drive via the command prompt, they all say to use DISKPART first.

    http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Create-a-Bootable-USB-Drive-Without-Using-A/

    https://technet.microsoft.com/nl-nl/library/jj200124(v=ws.11).aspx

    But, doing so would make no sense since you completely wipe the disk via the command “clean”. So, your applied custom image of Windows 10 would be gone.

    The next step to make sure you can boot from a USB drive is via BOOTSECT.exe.

    I’m going for answer F.

    To create a bootable USB drive, most websites only instruct you to use DISKPART. Using diskpart doesn’t make sense in this question though, because of the fact that you use the “clean” command to clean the disk.
    You just applied your custom image, so diskpart is not an option.

    Step 2 of creating a bootable usb drive is utilizing bootsect.exe, answer F.

    schiza is using this source: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/canitpro/2015/04/22/step-by-step-prepare-usb-media-to-install-windows-10/.

    Answer is F.
