Can't partition HD after failed boot-camp install

Hi, I have tried to Install Windows using Boot Camp, so I've allocated a partition for it (50gb)

It didn't work, and now I can't get it back using "Disk Utility" and also "Boot Camp" continuously keeps on crashing.


I have macOS High Sierra


please help...

Thanks,

Udi

Partitioning that's become corrupted is not particularly recoverable, unfortunately.


If the Boot Camp tools can't free up the storage allocated to the Windows partition, then back up all of what you can to external storage, wipe the HDD or SSD, and repartition the HDD or SSD as GPT, and reinstall and restore.
