What do you mean it won't install anything? Are you trying to download from the AppStore or a website? Are you getting an error of some kind? What version of MacOS are you running?

Make sure you have a working internet connection. If you do, try formatting the drive and trying again. Keep in mind formatting will delete everything on the drive.

MacOS partition? Or the internal drive?

Erase it and select the Mac OS Extended (Journaled)  format. What do you mean this is what caused the problem?

I did the Dosdude1 Catlina Patcher and it got stuck, and I couldn’t boot back into MacOSX High Serria, so I formatted the internal drive, and now i’m here

Try erasing the drive again and making sure it has an internet connection, that should fix the problem.

Last year the security certificates for many older versions of Mac OS X expired resulting in this issue. Apple created new installers with updated certificates for the newer OS versions but not the older.

 

You need to create a bootable USB to install the OS and set the system clock back before doing the install.
