I've been trying to install a duel boot of windows 10, using the official installer of windows 10. On a system that is already running a form of linux (kali neolinux). I keep getting this error everytime I try run the installer. It says windows can't open the required file: D:\sources\install.wim even though I've seen that file in that spot while viewing the drive

I've tried re-formating the usd several times, using 2 different iso bootloaders (unetbootin, pi imager), using different USB ports, changing uefi settings in bios, and updating bios.

My pc specs are

Motherboard: Asus rog strix b450f ii

Cpu: ryzen 5 5000

Gpu: evga 3070

Ram: 2 8gb sticks of ddr4 corsair vengeance in slots 2/4

    Might try creating new clean installation media.
