I just tried Legacy and got this:
Running Win 10 as a 'Live' OS from a USB stick.

Are you sure you did the proper bcdboot command with the correct drive letters?

Since you are I: and J: now it should be:
bcdboot I:\Windows /s J: /f ALL
You won't get an EFI System Partition because that can only be created on a GPT partitioned drive. UEFI computers will boot from any FAT32 partition that has the proper boot files in it. If you did not use the /f ALL option the first time, then you likely only wrote BIOS boot files to it, because that would be the default for an MBR drive with an Active system partition.
I'm at 79% applying the image...

C:\Users\ztruk>bcdboot J:\Windows /s I: /f ALL

Yep it booted into it! I'm using a USB 3 flash drive plugged into an adapter which is plugged into a USB C port. It really isn't all that slow for a flash drive!Last edited by NavyLCDR; 17 Jul 2020 at 22:43.

Okay, I'll go through it again tomorrow, I'm getting sleepy now, but it looks the same as what I've already done.
What are your UEFI Setup settings?
Secure boot, csm?
