Hello byshir,
Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. What is the exact error you're seeing? This information will help the community to provide you the best support.
Also,, which method are you using to restore your data. Is it Migration Assistant or a backup from Time Machine.
If you haven't tried yet, we recommend to restart your Mac in safe mode and see if you can complete the process of restoring your data. This is a step that may help. Here's how:
"Start up your Mac with Apple silicon in safe mode
- On your Mac, choose Apple menu
> Shut Down. - Wait for your Mac to shut down completely. A Mac is completely shut down when the screen is black and any lights (including in the Touch Bar) are off.
- Press and hold the power button on your Mac until “Loading startup options” appears.
- Select a volume.
- Press and hold the Shift key, then click Continue in Safe Mode.
- The computer restarts automatically. When the login window appears, you should see “Safe Boot” in the menu bar."
These steps can help and is outlined here: Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support
Kind regards.
