This disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved.

I am trying to install a windows partition on my macbook pro, and I am getting the "This disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved..." notification. I have tried reformatting the disk, and going into single user mode, and recovery mode, and neither have worked. Pls Help..... 😢
