Boot Camp Error -- "The startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition."

Hi.


I am trying to remove my Windows 10 partition to free up storage on my MacBook Pro. The windows partition works with no issues but when I try to remove it with the Boot Camp Assistant it gives me the "The startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition" error. It also says "The startup disk must be formatted as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant for installing Windows." Any help would be greatly appreciated.


P.S. I ran diskutil list in terminal and this is the output.


/dev/disk0 (internal):
