If you like to use terminal, use the command: sudo dd if=your_iso_here of=your_drive_here bs=512k. That will make a live win7 usb.

    Use unetbootin in kali linux which helps you to make a window 7 bootable USB.



    Steps to make bootable USB:




    1. Open applications button situated in top of the kali screen then go to system tools option after that click on unetbootin option in last.


    2. Choose a OS or distribution which you want to make bootable if it is not in option then usually click on disk image option in bottom of dialog box after that browse ISO file from browse option, after selecting then select the USB which you want to make bootable.


    3. Use Next or Ok then the USB will become bootable after given time.

      You probably already answered this, but look into winusb. it will make a bootable windows disc. It also depends on the bootloader you have installed on your machine. Depending on whether you want dual boot or not, you may be better off making a bootable usb stick from a windows machine, making it on linux can be a pain.

        WinUSB is a tool for creating a bootable USB flash drive used for installing Windows. Native UEFI booting is supported for Windows 7 and later images. WoeUSB is an updated fork of the WinUSB project.



        Some third-party installers feature Windows installation images (/sources/install.wim) greater than 4GB making FAT32 as target filesystem impossible. NTFS filesystem support has been added to WoeUSB 3.0.0 and later.



        To install WoeUSB (updated fork of WinUSB project) for releases based on Ubuntu 14.04 and later:



        sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8 
        sudo apt-get update
        sudo apt-get install woeusb


        To install WinUSB in Kali Linux:



        sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8 
        sudo apt-get update
        sudo apt-get install winusb


        This will install the WinUSB graphical interface and the WinUSB command line tool. The WinUSB GUI is much easier to use than the WinUSB command line tool.



        Installing WinUSB/WoeUSB on EFI-loaded Kali Linux will uninstall the grub-efi packages in order to install the grub-pc packages, so before you reboot run the following commands to repair grub:



        sudo update-grub
        sudo grub-install /dev/sdX # replace X with the letter of the partition where grub is located
        sudo update-grub
        sudo reboot

                                    sudo grub-install /dev/sdX # replace X with the letter of the partition where grub is located

                                    sudo reboot

                                      WinUSB is a tool for creating a bootable USB flash drive used for installing Windows. Native UEFI booting is supported for Windows 7 and later images. WoeUSB is an updated fork of the WinUSB project.



                                      Some third-party installers feature Windows installation images (/sources/install.wim) greater than 4GB making FAT32 as target filesystem impossible. NTFS filesystem support has been added to WoeUSB 3.0.0 and later.



                                      To install WoeUSB (updated fork of WinUSB project) for releases based on Ubuntu 14.04 and later:



                                      sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8 
                                      sudo apt-get update
                                      sudo apt-get install woeusb


                                      To install WinUSB in Kali Linux:



                                      sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8 
                                      sudo apt-get update
                                      sudo apt-get install winusb


                                      This will install the WinUSB graphical interface and the WinUSB command line tool. The WinUSB GUI is much easier to use than the WinUSB command line tool.



                                      Installing WinUSB/WoeUSB on EFI-loaded Kali Linux will uninstall the grub-efi packages in order to install the grub-pc packages, so before you reboot run the following commands to repair grub:

                                      sudo grub-install /dev/sdX # replace X with the letter of the partition where grub is located
                                      sudo update-grub
                                      sudo reboot
