No messages. It just skips the drive and goes to the next one in the boot order. This is after manually and specifically selecting the flash drive from the boot menu.

It is quite easy just one command from admin cmd propmt
bcdboot usbletter:\windows /s usbletter:
e.g.
bcdboot f:\windows /s f:

Wow! Thank you so much!
I've completed the steps up to and including the cmd prompt "bcdboot I:\windows /s I:" (see results in pic below). But it'll be sometime later before I go through trouble to shut down my computer and try booting from the flash drive. But I look forward to trying.

To SIW2,
Ok, it seems to have worked!
Again, thank you so much!
And I went ahead and downloaded the BDCBOOTDISK program along with the helpful screenshots for keepsakes.
