i searched for Make a Bootable Windows ISO
as a backup a windows partition that I may want to connect later in virtualbox to boot windows.
and found WoeUSB only and in bauh
is this the best way? you like that?
Why not use Rufus？
Yes WoeUsb is the best choice to create bootable windows usb stick, carry on mate

Is that ironic? Do you really mean WoeUsb is the best choice to create a bootable windows usb ISO?
No with linux, my personal choice is always to stick with woe usb for creating bootable windows drive

yes please see my last posteing:
"found in message at top: ```

but problem with it is:
Problem it not found my HDD drives. ups
what does this actually mean it writes to a USB that you format to NTFS burn the image, then use the image on the USB to install windows
i have many harddrives acess via File Manager. But WoeUSB shows no drives.
1 ich started woeUsb
2 switched to "From a CD/DVD drive"
i hoped its meaning is:
2 switched to "From a CD/DVD/HDD drive"
thats probably the reason 
i want "Make a Bootable Windows ISO" form a Harddrive (HDD). Then this ISO i will later use in VirtualBox. Probably its possible to use this harddrive directly with VirtualBox. Not the way i first thing on.
I would transfer the ISO to your home holder to write the USB as they often fail to write correctly if you don't. also a reboot may help
Tip when installing Windows it best to remove other drives and make a clean install
Good luck.
there is no ISO. in dont hava a ISO. i want get it. i want convert the HDD to ISO. Now better to understand?
???
No. You want to change the hdd to ISO, you know what ISO is?
No, then I would first deal with the basics before I try to install operating systems in VM.
Nein, dann würde ich mich erst mal mit den Grundlagen beschäftigen bevor ich versuche Betriebssysteme in einer VM zu installieren.
Try / Versuch es mal im deutschen Forum/Foren
https://archived.forum.manjaro.org/c/deutsch
Eigentlich steht ja alles schon im manjaro-wiki oder im Internet oder im Beitrag Nr. 4.
Actually everything is already in the manjaro-wiki or in the internet or in article no. 4.
That's not gonna do it.
Feels like there's a troll or help vampire at work.
you know what ISO is?
yes
i want to save the HDD to iso. i often did that in windows OS about 10000 times.
No, then I would first deal with the basics before I try to install operating systems in VM.
i have already installed and usend about 30 VMs since 2003.
in other words: I searching somthing like:
mkisofs -o destination-filename.iso /home/username/folder-name
??? save or convert ???
Why you ask then after 10.000 times it work?
I am out.

i never did it with linux. i did ISO stuff with windows.
But I actually did a lot of web searching. But less the forum posts read. Mostly I get posts about the burning of ISOs. If I was so unsuccessful on the first two pages of a search engine I asked here in the forum. Maybe I asked too fast. I was surprised how fast I get answers here. There is a lot of help here. And fast. I did not know if an iso build program is already installed here or not. For several years, I've had more experience with Linux Mint and Ubuntu. Otherwise I knew Linux especially the apt-get komanndo, ls -a, cd, mkdir, rmdir and chmod. Mostly done via FTP or ssh. Just what is typical for web developers. But I rarely had Linux for desktop. By the time Windows XP was still available, Linux was certainly much more stable. Meanwhile Windows is also more stable. And also a bit more comfortable. But that is certainly just a habit. I'm sorry if I got annoyed sometimes. In fact, I find it sometimes harder to get the proper help on Linux over Linux distro than we do for Linux. Because there are so many distros and I have never dealt with it. Unfortunately, installing often works differently. At the time I had installed Redhat in my diploma thesis on a 32GB RAM machine to install an SAP on it, but when it did I did not touch it anymore. It was then addressed from the outside. I try to improve my communication style. I was annoyed that things had planned for you only minutes, took hours. And I do not really have that much time - I think. Well. That's life.
Yes i jumped to german forum, thats easier to me (native speaker): a) Festplatte sichern so das ich diese bei Bedarf später b) in VirtualBox benutzten
Yesterday i have installed it by 'pamac build woeusb'
: How do I Make a (Bootable) Windows ISO?
but it searching only for disks or iso.
today it test again but in no Target device found any place to store (i hit refresh-button)
UPDATE: dont use the REFRESH button use File>Load Dirives
