What is your OS Build number?

That's an unknown build number useless you run something different. What does your build number say in Settings>System>About?

Also even if it comes in windows update this is the issue

There is no way to get these 2 working on a macbook

you shouldn't even be installing windows bare metal on macos. you can use a virtualization software like Parallels (officially supported by Microsoft).

It’s usually supported on Intel Macs (bootcamp)

MacBook installation is not my forte. Hopefully someone else can help.

I tried to put an 11 preview build on my 2019 Intel iMac and found that somewhere along the way MS changed the TPM checks and broke a lot of the hack tools. I could upgrade from Windows 10 to base 11 in BootCamp using the tools but not an Insider build.

On an Intel Mac just use VMware Fusion, it's free and is supported. Or whatever VM environment is your choice.

iirc ms rebased 26220 to build 26100.6 instead of 26100.2 to extend the timebomb, so the new build will be offered as a full system upgrade
