If Clover will boot it, or if you are using the Fxx key to select the Win drive to boot, do not bother.
Earlier Clover versions often had problems with an EFI partition that is not the first partition on the drive. Win 10 install puts WinRe Tools on the first partition, then the EFI partition, but will leave an existing EFI partition as first if it already exists and use it - hence the instruction to create the EFI partition using the Mac Disk Utility. For those who are handy with Windows command line, an elevated prompt at the Win10 install screen and using diskpart to format the drive and create the EFI partition would work as well, but for most, the Mac OS disk utility route is easiest.
Thanks. I think the Clover version on my USB stick is approx 1 year old and it boots Windows fine from existing NVME so I won't have to wipe and re-do.
