Lost storage while deleting windows 10 drive on BootCamp I was using both Mac OS and Windows 10 on my system. My MacBook is 2011 model. Anyways, Windows 10 was running out of space and had some virus issues. For this purpose I wanted to increase my space and reinstall Windows. I went on BootCamp for deleting windows. There was an error but BootCamp windows drive wasn’t showing in finder and on BootCamp. When I check my Disk Utility it also showed no other drive and my Mac OS’s drive didn’t showed any increase in storage. Therefore 60GB is missing. I also checked my BootCamp is I can still change booting is to windows but I couldn’t. What should I do ?

deleted bootcamp partition still taking up space/ dividing disk so a couple days ago i made a bootcamp partition that was 48 gigs because i was wanting to see how it worked. I then deleted the partition to make a bigger one with 220 gigs. when i made the one with 220 gigs, a problem occurred and i had to restart. the problem was that when i deleted that partition, it did not free up the space on my disk and when i go into disk utility, there is nothing but my disk and my disk data. I freed up some space on my computer and then made another partition to try to override the ghost partition and the same problem occurred. now i have literally half my computers disk storage. please help. thanks.

Lost storage after removing boot camp partition Hello, I ran boot camp assistant to remove my windows partition (to reinstall windows 10) but after some seconds it showed me an error and told me to run first aid from disk utility. I did and there was no error in first aid analysis. now by running the diskutil in terminal I see a "free space" without identifier. I would be grateful if you help me to attach this free space to my main partition.

I am a bit confused. You seem to have executed the commands I provided in The problem with fusion drive storage - Apple Community and have the disk space back. Is there still an issue with your Fusion disk?
