The issue is more likely to be caused by the update package, not your EFI folder. Boot in to macOS and re-download the update package so the current one is overwritten. Then apply the update.

Do you have the boot argument agdpmod=pikera enabled?

Yes It’s in the config

Yes It’s in the config

For more help kindly remove your serial numbers and then zip and upload your current EFI folder for evaluation

Okay I’ll do that in few seconds just starting my OS again. - I think that it could be that Big Sur 11.7.5 doesn’t support the RX 6600.. that’s why I actually trying to update to Monterey but getting always that screen.. it’s so annoying since few days

Your 6600 card should be supported in Big Sur 11.4 and after.

Okay,, that's weird then. I don't know what to do, my old setup> MSI Z270-A Pro and I7 6700 was working fine with my RX 6600 but my Mainboard is dead so I bought a AM4 Sys. but now I got only trouble

RX 6600 didn't gain support in macOS until Monterey 12.1. There is no support for this AMD Navi card in Big Sur. So no graphics acceleration from this dGPU.

The RX6800/6900 & XT variants were supported in Big Sur 11.4.

Sorry for the bad advice, Dortania only states the Navi 21 cards got support starting with Big Sur 11.4 but it doesn't qualify that's only the 6900 and 6800 series cards. My bad.

Could you help me then with this problem? I get this always if I try to upgrade from Big Sur to Monterey..

Try using a different USB port for your installer, see if that helps. The prohibitive sign usually means the USB device can’t be found, because the port being used has been dropped/disabled in macOS, even though it initially worked when the system booted.

not working..

Post a copy of your EFI folder so we can see what you are using.

Have you installed/restored macOS Monterey 12.1 + on a USB drive? Or are you trying to update to Monterey using the built in Software Update in System Preferences?

I recall a lot of MSI motherboard owners having problems installing and running Monterey, You may be better served bypassing Monterey and installing macOS Ventura.

I've tried to install it like big sur via the USB and through the recovery dmg's but nothing worked. I also have tried Ventura but it does the same..

The EFI link you provided above is pants! Eventually it download a 140kb disk image (.dmg).

You need to zip your EFI folder, don't use rar compression and attach it to a post here. Don't add any more useless links that try to get you to install Windows Adobe software containing a virus and then provide rubbish when they do try to provide the download.
