windows 10 installation stuck at “getting ready”

Bootcamp installation goes smooth until windows gets into “getting ready” part. I have had the computer running for the whole night thinking time would help but nothing changed. Tried it through efi as well but there wasn’t any change

Try to install the retail version Download Windows 10 Disc Image (ISO File) and see if that works better. If it installs properly, then without activating it, install the Education version on top of the W10 retail version.

It is a Mid 2014 13inch Macbook Pro with 2.8ghz and 512GB ssd. Windows is the windows 10 educational since I have it from my university. I just recently changed from a Mid 2014 with i5 2.6ghz and 128gb ssd to this one. This educational version went smoothly with the old one... it’s just this newer one that had this problem...
