How can I fill-in column A, make it start with the day's name according to the year in A2 and month in A1 and conditionally format them?

Please use the following formula

=SEQUENCE(COUNT(B5:B),1,DATE(A2,MONTH(A1&1),1),1)

enter image description here

You then format your cells as Tue found under Format >Number >More date and time formats

enter image description here

I also noticed that you have the following conditional formatting applied, which will no longer work

=OR($A5="Fri",$A5="Sat")

What you should now use is

=OR(WEEKDAY($A5)=6,WEEKDAY($A5)=7)
