I build a Win10 x64PE with XPE builder. It is first time that I use XPE, till now I have made all my PE's with PESE.
I use a program called AIOCreator to write bootable isos to my multiboot usb drive. But the program gives an error and refuses to write my newly created PE iso.
I have tested AIOCreator in different platforms, including PESE. It never gives such an error. I tried every possible builds on Create ISO page but the result was the same.
Any solution would be appreciated.

I tried your solution (I wonder how I missed:). This time AIO accepted to write it, but when I tried to boot XPE
Windows gave that blue screen at the last stage of boot.
By the way you can download AIO from here. https://www.aioboot.com/en/download/
AIO has another feature, it can write isos and wim files. Now I can boot with wim file. It doesn't give error when I use wim function.
But with that checkbox checked it didn't boot with wim also.
I know it is a very specific topic, so thank you very much.

Try to change the bootloader to grub4dos https://www.aioboot.com/en/install-grub4dos/

I prefer to use Grub2 instead of Grub4Dos. Because as you know, new PCs are not boot with legacy mode. They boot only with UEFI compatible devices.
And you can not boot with Grub4Dos on new machines, at least I cannot. So I have to use Grubb2.

While that is true. There are ways around it.

Can you send a screenshot of the screen you get.

Have you tried Writing the ISO to USB by using USB7ice ?? Or by mounting the ISO and copying contents to Fat32 Formatted USB ???
You need to verify the Build Image (ISO) is Bootable

I have verified that the image (ISO) is bootable by UltraIso. But I didn't try USB7ice, because it formats usb drive and I don't want to touch my pendrive because there are too many
boot isos etc.. So I'm sure that build image is bootable. As I mentioned above, I get around this by writing boot.wim file instead of iso file.

I assume you are Booting ISO files when using AIOcreator..
With that assumption, have you tried coping the cdusb.y to the Root of the USB ??
Thus removing it from within the ISO....

A quick test doing that should assign Y to your AIO Media Stick when booted into XPE....
I am just curious as to the results - for now..

Bigbadmoshe is right. AIO dislikes cdusb.y file. I removed the file within image with UltraIso and it booted.
But when I checked Do not create cdusb.y it has crashed. So the solution is removing that file manually.
And it doesn't matter if the file is in root of usb drive. It boots even there isnt't cdusb.y file.
Thanks everybody, especially to Bigbadmoshe.

so you moved the file to root of usb?

I have done that before but it did not help.

I need to start clean windows and slowly test with clean build.

I integrated the XPE Boot.wim ( Not the XPE ISO ) with AIOCreator
Then I Copied the CDusb.y Flag and the "Programs" Folder to the Root of the AIO Media....
Basically I followed the Normal Booting Process of Windows....

The Issue with the CDusb.y Flag being present inside ISO is the fact you are booting (Expanding / Mounting) the ISO as a drive which is assigned a drive letter...
Then XPE is trying to Re-Assign the Drive Letter of the expanded ISO drive to Y due to the flag...
