Perhaps you made the mistake of creating Windows partitions within Disk Utility. Doing so will cause Disk Utility to create an MBR/GPT hybrid partition scheme. Windows will see it as MBR. Windows UEFI supports only GPT. I think you see the problem...

The correct way to dual boot UEFI Windows is covered in the guide, post #2: http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

Always read carefully.

I see the guide is for Laptops - am i okay to follow this on my desktop?

I apologise for not stating that I'm using a PC build over a laptop. I merely thought the error posted in this thread applied to both PC builds and laptops

I've attached the error i receive when i boot the USB in UEFI mode to install Windows

Same mistake/issue. Same solution.

Booting legacy to a separate Windows drive not really practical for most laptops (single drive).

I resume this thread because a definitive solution don't find.
Loooking at the boot with Clover, I note a strange thing:
The first screen nr 1 attached

Pressing space key, appear nr 2 attached:
Choosing W10 option, appear another Clover window (nr 3):
And pressing space the nr 4

It is normal. Clearly you have both bootmgfw.efi and bootmgfw-orig.efi at EFI/Microsoft/Boot.
Clover recognizes both.

Then I must erase bootmgfw.efi or bootmgfw-orig.efi?
Returning to the boot issue, if I restore the genuine efi partition without clover, w10 boot quietly. So the problem is in the EFI partition and not in winload.exe
