Q: Boot Camp crashed during partioning

I have a MacBook Pro 2015 15" and am using OS X v10.11.14 and was trying to create a Windows 10 bootable disk using Boot Camp. I allocated 70 GB and when it crashed during the partitioning step my Mac crashed and performed a restart. When it started up Boot Camp was on the first step (the opening screen) and the allocated data is being taken up. Nothing shows on Disk Utility and I don't know what to do to fix it. Does anyone know how to fix this? I used a Windows 10 OS from the microsoft store.Thanks in advance.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, Other OS, MAC OS X 10.11.14

    You have two options...

     

    A. The simplest and safest method to get your disk space back is

     

    1. Backup OSX and all your files - Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .

    2. Boot into Internet Recovery (Command+Opt+R) - OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support .

    3. Click on Utilties -> Disk Utility and Erase your internal whole disk.

    4. Restore OSX and your files - Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .

     

    This requires a separate external disk which can accommodate TM backup - Backup disks you can use with Time Machine - Apple Support .

     

    B. Boot into internet recovery

     

    1. Resize the CS volume - diskutil cs resizeVolume 9011E6D6-95FA-4DD2-96D3-D1ED55C325EC 0g . The "0g" instructs the utility to extend the volume and absorb the Free Space.

    2. Repair Disk - diskutil repairDisk disk0
