How to use exactly this tool to get WinPE with GUI just like some other Windows Pocket Edition downloads from the internet and to have 32-bit support in 64-bit ISO and allow any exe that is not distributed by bootable ISO to be runned.

The easiest way to get WinPE with a GUI is by adding explorerframe.dll and explorer.exe into the System32 folder and then editing the necessary registry entries. For more detailed instructions, I recommend checking out the WinFE 'Make' batch script: WinFE.

However, if you don't want to rebuild your ISO or are looking for a quick workaround, you can simply run notepad.exe from the terminal. Then, go to File -> Open. By changing the file type filter from .txt to All Files, you'll have access to a basic file system GUI. You will still need to use cmd to execute programs and such, but a easy way to run GUI on any WinPE system.
