Your Mac has a firmware password set. See Set a firmware password on your Mac - Apple Support. If you do not know the password, you will need to set up an appointment with the Apple Store (or an AASP) and provide proof of ownership, before it can be unlocked.

Can you upgrade to Catalina 10.15.7?

im stuck on a windows loading screen and every time and error message pops up that says there was a problem installing
when I try to go into safe mode I either get error code: 0xc0000001 or 0xc0000089

Which version of Windows are you trying to install? What is the W10 ISO filename?

Well since I’m stuck I literally can’t leave the one screen so I won’t be able to update to 10.15.7

Power down the Mac, reboot and hold Alt/Option and choose macOS, if available.

I belive that the version of windows I’m trying to download is Windows 10 (standard) I don’t remember the exact file name but I belive it was the 64 bit version that’s the most info I remember

If macOS comes up, we can check what is the ISO file name.
