You need to manually format the first partition of your USB drive as NTFS after installing Ventoy for Windows to boot.
Apologies for going a bit off topic, how would you change the partition to NTFS. I assume you mean split the exFAT partition and have the NTFS for windows?

You would back up all of the contents of the partition, delete the partition, make a new NTFS partition, then copy the contents back from a backup.

Just looked and unfortunately grubfm is no longer maintained, did anyone take up the mantle and fork it?
