I used unetbootin on my windows 10 pc because the mac one keeps giving me a no mountable filesystems error and a iso I got from isoriver. bootcamp is not giving me the create a install disk even though my mac is in the usbsupportedmodels
 
UNetbootin seems does not have good support for Windows ISO. It is made for Linux. This is quote from UNetbootin website:

However, not all distributions support booting from USB, and some others require extra boot options or other modifications before they can boot from USB drives, so these ISO files will not work as-is. Also, ISO files for non-Linux operating systems have a different boot mechanism, so don't expect them to work either.

You can use dd command in Terminal to make a bootable USB drive. However, you should format the USB to MS-DOS FAT with MBR first.

If you are not familiar with command, then take a look at UUByte ISO Editor app, which is a premium solution for creating bootable Windows USB on Mac. It has a nice UI and easy to use.
 
i used unetbootin due to rufus not allowing me to create a drive in fat32
