Ok then , boot into mac os and go to boot options and then select the usb and then try it. Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then click Startup Disk. It is a temporary fix but will work I think.

Only devices with optical drives support installing Windows via USB, so you must create a DVD.

He’s completely fine. These won’t start from USB unless it’s running macOS, which means if the DVD doesn’t work, there’s no Windows option. It’s time to use Parallels or VMware Fusion.

It could be that with a DVD, pressing the power button might trigger the C key, allowing you to boot directly from it. This might function.

I thought OP was familiar with using a Mac, so I expected a DVD playback too. Assuming the Windows DVD shows up in the boot options is what I noticed.
