Bootcamp gives an error immediately

Bootcamp says "sttartup disk must be formatted as a single macOS APFS volume or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant for installing Windows." when I click continue on the first screen. I already checked Disk Utility and I have one partition. If needed I can provide screenshots of this as well as the error.

Windows bootcamp not working Hello, I have a question about Boot Camp. So I wanted to install windows, but Boot Camp Assistant gave an error: "Your disk could not be partitioned An error occurred while partitioning the disk. Please run First Aid from within Disk Utility to check and fix the error". First aid said there weren't any problems. I am using macOS Big Sur 11.2.3. I have had Windows installed earlier, and removed it, but now I want it back.

Boot Camp Assistant has encountered a problem “an internal error has occurred” I am trying to use Boot Camp Assistant to create a partition but I receive an error message "An internal error has occurred". I don't know what to do. I have an iMac 27inch retina late 2017 and use Catalina. The iMac used to have a 1TB fusion drive, but I had it changed with a 256 GB SSD. The MacOS Catalina is installed on the 256GB SSD, whereas the 32 GB SSD from the Fusion Drive is unused. Is there any possible way to resolve the error and use Boot Camp to install Windows 10? I appreciate any support.

by one partition I meant a single volume, not two.
