Use the windows tool.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

Specifically follow the instructions under Using the tool to create installation media (USB flash drive, DVD, or ISO file) to install Windows 10 on a different PC (click to show more or less information)
Make sure you pick the USB drive that you have plugged in. It will download and set up the drive as a bootable usb for installing windows 10.

Sandisk... no wonder. Sandisk has software on it that is installed when you plug into your computer which isn't compatible with the windows usb tool. The firmware bit value is set so it's recognized as a hard drive and not a thumb drive as well, because of microsoft go drive standards. The way around it is to download the ISO with the windows tool and use another program (rufus) to make a bootable drive. Or get a better thumb drive.
