I was trying to install Windows 10 and I opened Boot camp and it said "Mac not supported" I was wondering if there is still a way to install Windows 10 without any emulator but Boot camp

Microsoft has had Windows built for different computer architectures over the years. Some examples that have had Windows or Windows Server support including Alpha, Itanium, MIPS, PowerPC, x86-32, x86-64, and Arm AArch64.
Apple M1 is the Arm AArch64 architecture, which means you’ll either need a Windows distribution built for Arm AArch64, or an emulator for the Windows build you do have.
Per the way Microsoft is providing Windows built for Arm AArch64 on Apple silicon (M1, M2, etc), you’ll also need a hypervisor. Specifically, you’ll need Parallels. This allows you to run Windows—the Arm AArch64 version—as a guest of the Parallels hypervisor on macOS.
Apple Boot Camp provides support for native boot for Windows on x86-64. Not for Arm AArch64. And as mentioned, Microsoft doesn’t currently support native boot on Apple silicon. Just booting as a guest of Parallels hypervisor.
If you want to run Windows for x86-64 on M1, you’ll need a hypervisor and an emulator. UTM is one such example. UTM translates x86-64 code into Arm AArch64 code at run-time. Which works. But won’t be as speedy as native code.
