I tried multiple wats to change the boot system from bios but if i even change one seeting from bios it just gets freeze and I tried holding down the power button for a 30 seconds and restarting, and doing the same thing, but it still freezes when switching to the Windows boot loader.

    First and in the BIOS of your Nitro AN17-42 at Main > F12 Boot Menu > Option to use boot menu during POST > change to Enable, so that when the bootable Win-11 USB is inserted, you press this F12 key to boot into the Rufus bootable drive and start the Win-11 installation below.

    Then construct a Win-11 24H2 Rufus 4.5 bootable USB drive and follow their guide, then download the Win-11 24H2 version from Microsoft as you will need to put this .ISO file onto the bootable USB. Start the installation and then at “where do you want to install Windows? > delete the drive and reinstall Win-11 24H2 onto the M.2 SSD drive, as this will completely format all traces of the Kali Linux and you will be able to install Win-11 24H2 and all its updates to have OS build: 26100.3194 and make your Nitro AN17-42 laptop operate properly. Good luck and hope this helps you out and solves your problem.
