Two things come to mind:
1) Your firmware settings should be set to boot from the drive that will NORMALLY be booted, not the USB Flash drive. When you boot to install, your machine will have a hot key to press to force the firmware to present a boot menu - a one time override; select the target Ventoy flash drive.
2) When you get your Firmware Boot Menu, if your Firmware is UEFI, you'll have two choices - booting Ventoy in UEFI mode or BIOS Compatibility mode. Ventoy in turn boots the ISO in the same mode you booted it in. So Windows install will boot in either UEFI or BIOS mode. If UEFI, the drive you are installing Windows onto must be partitioned GPT. If BIOS, the drive must be partitioned MBR. You can erase the drive entirely when you start the Windows install.

You should record a clip of the problem you are having to understand better and take measures to solve it

Dealing with Windows 10 installation issues can be a real headache. One thing you might wanna try is creating a bootable USB drive with the Windows 10 installation files on it. Sometimes, installing from a USB drive can bypass any issues you might be having with your current installation method. Another thing to check is your system requirements. Make sure your hardware meets the minimum requirements for Windows 10. If you're not sure, a quick Google search should give you the info you need.

I have the same problem as mentioned here. (Acer Travelmate 7730)
I have XP on SSD-0, partition-1
an I have Win10-32bit on SSD-1, partition-1
Dualboot works fine.
Now I wanted to install Win10-64bit from Ventoy-Stick to replace win10-32bit.
It does not work. Allways the some error message when I choose the partition-1: "We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one. For more information, see the Setup log files."
I also plugged out SSD-0 and plugged SSD-1 to solt-0 (Main).
So I have only the SSD-0 with NTFS primary formatted partition-1 and logical partition-2.
The problem stays the same.
I have now burned the ISO to DVD-DL and then the installation was running with no Problems.

How are you booting to Ventoy? BIOS or EFI?
The Ventoy menu version string will tell you.
