I've been running Windows 11 on my MacBookPro12,1 for a while now and it's worked fine, aside from occasionally slow wifi speeds. I have hibernated it in the past (I think), but lately I manually hibernated the computer and then later went to turn it on again, and it shows the Windows logo but not the loading animation and will just sit on the Windows logo for hours doing nothing. I do have the latest version of OCLP, if that is relevant (though it shouldn't be…).
Nothing I've tried has gotten it to boot up. I can't figure out a way to boot into safe mode or something at boot up. I'm in the process of trying to make a Win11 bootable USB, but I thought I did that successfully already and it wasn't showing up as a bootable option at the boot screens.
Any ideas?
EDIT: Solved - I made a bootable USB disk on macOS using the excellent WinDiskWriter app and was able to boot into that disk. Repair didn't work but eventually having the disk in the computer seemed to make it boot normally for whatever reason.
