You can actually just use Rufus to create the bootable USB, and it gives you option to disable telemetry and other tracking shit.
I'm not sure if there is a utility for windows as there is for Nvidia drivers (Nvinstall), which automatically downloads the files, removes all the unnecessary shit as per your preferences and creates a new installer.
I've used Rufus to create a Windows USB from ISO and I didn't see any options to remove telemetry, but that was years ago. There may be such options now that it's known how much they've become a spyware company.
