How to install windows 10 from USB on an MSI motherboard?

I have formatted a USB with an ISO file of windows 10 and have placed the USB as first priority during boot, but I don't know whether the motherboard isn't detecting the ISO file, even though the BIOS shows the USB drive as a bootable option, or I am doing the entire process wrong. When I try to select the USB as the way to boot, it shows this message:
"Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key."

Did you make an USB bootable device with an ISO file of W10 using one of those create-a-bootable-USB software or did you just copy the ISO file on to the USB?

If you had used a tool like Universal USB Installer then it's as simple as:

1> Downloading the ~1.2MB tool.
2> Run it.
3>Click on I Agree

4>Select Windows 10 Installer from the drop down box:

5>Point it to where you've saved your W10 ISO file
6> Select the USB drive
7>Check the Format the drive (Erase content) {make sure the USB drive you've selected doesn't contain any important data before proceeding}

Note: I didn't have an W10 ISO file on hand so the last img is using the Linux Mint ISO file to demonstrate the last step.
8> Click on Create.
9> Wait for the tool to finish its job and then you'd have a bootable Windows installation USB drive ready for use.

Thank you ever so much for this instruction, however I put the ISO on the USB on a friend's mac, as the PC I am building is to replace my old one which recently died. Would Universal USB Installer work with wine?
