The package uses upstream desktop shortcut. I can include a patch, but maybe you should propose your updated desktop entry as a PR on https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB-ng ?

I get this error whenever I try to burn the iso to usb, either mounted or unmounted: Installation failed! Error: Unable to create /media/woeusb_source_1704217016_13039 mountpoint directory

Maybe we could replace ntfs-3g with ntfsprogs-ntfs3 (on the AUR), since the NTFS3 driver is built into all official Arch Linux kernels as a module by default.

It's already the case by default, we include ntfsprogs as a dependency, which resolve to:

ntfsprogs (ntfs-3g-wimlib-patched, ufsd-pro-tools, ntfsprogs-ntfs3, ntfs-3g)

On a clean install, you should be able to choose the package that match ntfsprogs.

@abd

Show the solution please..

The error show that your are missing dependencies. Python setuptools is listed as a make dependency, could you try to make the package with the -s option:

makepkg -s

@kIERO, woeusb-ng uses that directory to mount the Windows ISO to copy the files off of.
