Create a bootable USB for Lenovo Yoga Slim 7X

I originally wrote this as a Reddit comment, but it was deleted (I guess because it has links? idk), so I'm creating this Gist instead to document how I was able to boot the Windows installer on this laptop.

Note that the easiest solution is to just download the recovery media creator from Lenovo's support site, but I wanted to run the stock Windows installer, so this outlines how to do that.

Here are the steps I took to boot the Windows installer on my Lenovo Yoga Slim 7X (with an ARM64 Snapdragon Elite X CPU). I initially tried using Rufus, and while that drive did show up in the boot menu, selecting it would just hang on the YOGA logo forever.

Hi All!

I've recently launched a tool that wraps many of the commands here with a user interface. This desktop application is currently available for macOS. There's a roadmap outlining planned features for the near future.
Feel free to request any features you'd like to see, and I'll prioritize them accordingly.
One of the most important aspects of this application is that every command executed behind the scenes is displayed in a special log section. This allows you to see exactly what’s happening and learn from it.

Here's the link to the repository:  https://github.com/Pulimet/ADBugger

App Description:
ADBugger is a desktop tool designed for debugging and QA of Android devices and emulators. It simplifies testing, debugging, and performance analysis by offering device management, automated testing, log analysis, and remote control capabilities. This ensures smooth app performance across various setups.
