I'm using a newly downloaded copy of openSUSE-Leap-42.2-DVD-x86_64.iso and Universal-USB-Installer-1.9.7.8.exe. Before I got into the habit of running opensuse under W10, I had no trouble installing opensuse. I also had no trouble installing opensuse under VB.
Huh oh. I don't know what that "Universal-USB-Installer-1.9.7.8.exe" is, but the way to create an openSUSE install USB stick is to copy the install iso image RAW to the USB stick. If you use something that tries to make it bootable, you break it and will not work. Besides what jdd suggest, as you have a virtualized Linux you can create the USB stick from it. https://en.opensuse.org/Live_USB_stick -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
