Bootcamp failed to copy Windows 10 files - I've tried everything...
Hello,
I'm sorry to sound like a broken record on these forums about Bootcamp not working, but I'm at the point of having no idea what to do. I haven't used a Mac in over 20 years, but am comfortable with working on computers on both the software and hardware front. I recently obtained a early-2015 Macbook Pro Retina 13", and I've upgraded the hard drive to a 500GB Samsung 970 Evo NVMe SSD via using the Sintech adapter that was created for this particular SSD proprietary connector. I bring that up because I don't know if that has anything to do with my woes here. In order to have gotten the NVMe drive to natively work in the first place, I used an OEM Apple hard drive to update the laptop completely for all the firmware updates necessary, then installed the Samsung 970 Evo and reinstalled Mac OS. That all said, the laptop is fully up-to-date on Mojave 10.14.2 with no pending updates.
I've read so many threads here, on Reddit, Youtube videos, etc. saying which ISOs worked and which didn't. I've tried so many of them and none of them will work. Still trying to use build 1803 since many have said the newest one is problematic. Once I open Bootcamp, select the ISO, allocate the partition space (100GB), and begin the process, after the tools are downloaded, I am immediately prompted with "An error occurred while copying the Windows installation files."
I've also tried the "twocanoes" solution to no avail. I genuinely have no idea what else to try. Based on what has been asked of others in similar situations, I booted into single-user mode and ran the fsck_apfs -s -o -y /dev/rdisk1 in hopes that you see something that is wrong that I have no idea about. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
