Partitioning disk taking too long

After I ran the command you gave me, I check the Disk Utility - Partition Option - and then it says "Free Space", so I'm pretty sure the command worked, but I'll still give you the output of diskutil list:

(When I ran the command to make Free Space)

So, should I check the button “Install” and continue with the procedure given to me on Bootcamp Assistant? Because like I said, I tried two times to get to the EFI and it did not appear even with the USB plugged in.

Same error for some reason, maybe it has to do with malware or something? I’m really not sure but this really isn’t normal because I’ve haven’t encountered any problems with installing windows before, and recently this is the only time it’s acting weird...

I'm not really sure what it is, but when I go onto "System Report/System Information" and click on USB, it tells me (USB 3.0):

But, here is a physical picture of my USB used for the download of the windows files, named "WININSTALL" on my Mac, and looks like this (and I don't really know what type it is):

Also, here are the partitions through the command, diskutil list:

Ok, I got a Lexar USB with 32GB (I couldn't find 16GB so I chose this one).

It looks like this but mine is blue.

To continue the process what do I need to do first, and what do I need to do with my current Kingston USB?

I plugged in my Lexar USB, and started the installation for the files.

Is the installation supposed to take as long as it did before? Right now, its taking maybe around 10+ mins so far, like how its always been.

I am going through the steps to the Windows installation, everything is looking ok, I even didn’t need to format the disk and allowed me to just completely skip that, I click continue and yet to my surprise, the exact same error message that pops up everytime.

I searched up the exact same error on Google, and I came up with an answer from this link: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/reinstalling-windows-windows-detected-that-the-efi/03cfd43f-1a8d-4b7e-9df1-dd28c6cbd027

Do you think this will help? To this point I’m just trying to get any solution possible 😩

I think there might be another problem though, or maybe I’m mistaken... When I run the command “attributes volume clear hidden” it shows this:

And afterwards, when I run list volume, it also says that the partition is healthy but not fat32 but the wininstall is formatted as Fat32

Oh, thank you, I clicked on install again and it came back...

But, right after I press install and drag the right amount of storage that I want, it brings up this message,

I check Disk Utility, and click on my Macos disk, and then click on partition and shows that there are 250 Gb worth of free space...

I did... but I think that the same popup appeared when I "removed" the partition. For some reason, it thought that I "did remove" it, and so I now have the "Install Windows 10 or later version", and not the "Remove Windows 10 or later version"

If it did not really work, how do I "properly" remove the partition/instalment?

I think I have good news...

When I try to install, it works! Luckily, no error pops up. Also, it shows a progress bar which has never been there before whenever I tried to partition. I think it might work well...

Here it is
