For Windows? Usually the built support for formatting the USB drive works then Windows has built-in support for opening an ISO image with the file explorer which you can then just copy all the files from the ISO to the USB drive with.

You're talking about the Slackware installation ISO? Don't they normally have instructions for how to create a bootable USB stick for installing the OS (e.g. what file system, FAT32, GPT or MBR boot record, etc.)? I don't recall needing any 3rd party software to do that.
