Did BootCamp stopped working in MacOS Monterey?

Question

Did BootCamp stopped working in MacOS Monterey?

I recently restored my MacBook Pro 2020 (Intel Core i5 version) to its factory default. I tried to reinstall Windows 10 (as I already had it installed prior to the restore) using BootCamp and I tried by installing it by using a file I already had, and it failed. Then I tried by downloading the latest ISO file in Microsoft website and it failed too.

No matter what I do, I always get the same error message which states “it couldnt be possible to boot the computer into the next phase”

I've never had any troubles installing it. Does anyone know what could be happening?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.3

Can you run a SMC and NVRAM Reset and try to install Windows again?

I tried that, I successfully reseted the NVRAM and the SMC and yet the problem still persists.

I’m attaching some snippets of the error message.

Do you know any other workaround I may try? Thanks in advance for your help!

Just to further elaborate: today I tried installing windows in an SSD not using BootCamp using a method that had worked for me before when I didn't want to use up my internal SSD storage (that method can be found in YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2aZeGVETPs), and this time it threw me the exact same exception that gave me by using BootCamp.

The problem is, with no doubt, in a configuration in my Mac. Does anybody know which setting?

So the problem is not MacOS Monterey. I’ve seen videos of people installing windows on Monterey, and I already downgraded to Big Sur to try, and it was an unsuccessful try.

I think I’m giving this up. Something has failed and I will never know why. If someone can enlighten my path, I will be really grateful.

But from my side I’ll give this up
