Cannot install windows 10 on bootcamp !!!


Hey! I'm trying to install windows 10 on my Mac because I would like to use win10's apps and software for specific reasons, when im trying to install it it says I need at least 40gb free space. Below you can see I have 73.35gb of 121.12gb (Its the best I can do with how much is available) Then it says "Your bootable USB Drive could not be created." Well why would I want to boot off my USB? IDK. Im trying to boot of MachintoshHD and create a partition.

I have installed windows 10 before and it has worked with a similar USB and this issue hasn't popped up since I installed MacOS Mojave

Any help would be lovely. Thanks.

Macbook (2015 or later)
