I've been using Nobara Linux for about two months, and while I've enjoyed playing games like Minecraft, Roblox, and others, I can't play VALORANT due to its anti-cheat system, Vanguard, not supporting Linux. I decided to set up a dual boot with Windows 11 to run it. I can get to the setup screen, but the installation fails every time, stating "Window 11 installation failed" after reaching 100%. I've tried various methods including WoeUSB and Ventoy, allocated a 250 GB partition using GPT, and ensured both the partition and USB disk were cleared. I'm not sure what I might be doing wrong or if there's a specific way to get this to work.

Check out the installation tips in our wiki. There are some useful methods listed there. Also, make sure to use an Ethernet cable during the installation for a stable connection, and don't forget to remove the boot media once you're done! Good luck!
Have you considered trying Balena Etcher? It might improve your chances of getting the Windows 11 ISO installed. Just a thought!
I looked into that, but I read it doesn't support Windows 11 ISO files.
