You can't.
4GB is too small even to try to install from.

You absolutely cannot make a bootable usable Win 10 install in a 4GB space.

What are you actually trying to do?

Install Windows from the USB?
Or install and run Windows ON the USB?

To actually run the OS, just Windows, you'll need a 32GB or larger flash drive.
If you also want Linux on this same flash drive, I recommend 64GB.


What will this actually be used for?
yes yes..."dualboot". But why running this from a flash drive?

i was trying to reinstall windows and overwrite the old linux again, cuz installing windows first is easier,not running from the usb.

"not running from the usb"

That's why I asked.


Installing FROM the USB, not running ON the USB.
8GB.
