Hello.

Your UsbBoot-Installer won't run even if I'm administrator. Please give a look at the image below :

How to fix it ?

You can try clone this repo and running installer.bat as administrator. If you are sure you are running in administrator mode, you can remove the following code https://github.com/muink/UsbBoot-Installer/blob/99b200303b87011fa88bd1d3bde5c342bfe38a31/installer.bat#L6

net session checks that the shell has administration privileges as installer.bat needs them

open an admin dos shell and issue that command to make sure that you do have admin privileges

BTW, I notice that you run win7 under Test mode, so I don't know if this is the cause of your troubles

also be aware that this utility mainly supports the old, classic usb2 stack of win7

if you need newer usb3 support you may check my commit for adding support for a specific usb3 driver
