Bootcamp - Windows 10 freezes when installing

I’m currently trying to install Windows 10 via Bootcamp on my Early 2014 Macbook Air. The installation works fine until it gets to the part where it says “Getting Ready”. It stays there for about 20 minutes before it freezes. Does anyone know how to help?

I get a different MD5.

openssl md5 Win10_1709_English_x64.iso

MD5(Win10_1709_English_x64.iso)= 5e8bdef20c4b468f868f1f579197f7cf

Can you re-download the ISO (preferably over a wired connection) and retry?
