"your disk could not be partitioned" Bootcamp Assistant

Hi, im trying to download and run windows 10 on my mid 2015 MBP retina with a core i7-4770HQ, but when I try to use bootcamp assistant, it gets to the "partitioning disk" part, and then the error pops up, informing me that the disk could not be partitioned and to run first aid. I have already done that multiple times, and read all of apple's guides and nothing is working. Please help.

Can't partition disk for Boot Camp When partitioning my disk to install Windows, it said an error occurred and that my disk couldn't be partitioned. But Disk Utility couldn't repair it. Can I do something to fix it without having to erase it completely?

How to install Windows 10 on MacBook Pro A1425 running Catalina? Hi folks, The lady of the house has recently given me a MacBook pro A1425 The MacBook was given a reset to factory defaults, meaning I was starting with a clean laptop Thanks to wonderful assistance given to me elsewhere on this forum (thanks again to all who helped with that), I've upgraded the OS to Catalina Previously this MacBook was running dual boot to Windows I have attempted to install Windows 10 using Boot Camp but repeatedly get the same error: Your Bootable USB drive could not be created An error occurred while formatting the disk. I've looked around for a solution Many on the internet refer to the USB stick formatting and capacity I've tried 2 different USB sticks (1 with 32 GB & 1 with 64 GB capacity) I've tried formatting the USB sticks as each of FAT32, exFAT & NTFS I've also tried a different USB port on the MacBook None of this has made a difference I've taken up only a 230 MB of space on the MacBook disk since I've started using it (and emptied the MacBook Bin to clear the files downloaded to upgrade the OS) Hence I don't believe there is a capacity constraint at play from the disk in the MacBook Can anyone please recommend a constructive way for me to take this forward? Thanks for any help.
