W10 1909 has a file - install.wim - which is larger than 4GB and does not fit on FAT partitions. High Sierra creates a FAT partition for OSXRESERVED, which is the Windows installer.


You have two choices


  • Upgrade to Mojave 10.14.6, which addresses the issue, or,
  • Find an older ISO (prior to 1903) and try to install Windows.
