Thats something that happens in (some) latest mcodes, you have to ask to @plutomaniac
I read something about the header, really dont remember the issue. Thats why i said MMtool or HEX.
Here is other mcodes to try: [OFFER] Intel CPU Microcode Archives - Special Topics / CPU Microcodes - Win-Raid Forum (level1techs.com)

I added the older version (1E) to the BIOS.

If you’re using Windows 10 or 11, it doesn’t matter that you don’t have the latest microcode in your BIOS, because both Winodws (19041.1, 22000.1) have the latest (1F).
