Firstly: Go to the system pref. and look for Time Machine. Check if Time Machine is turned off.
Then, go to the terminal and paste that command : tmutil thinlocalsnapshots / 9999999999999999
Problem there is snapshot that bootcamp created before making a bootable usb.
I had same problem and that worked for me
Hope it helps 🙂
Hi LonerT, ok I run bootcamp to remove the partition and then rerun again bc. At first I got another error. So what I did is, I saved the iso into usb and use it to run bc. After that it went through further but then again I got another error again ‘Windows cannot locate the disk’. When I searched the net for this kind of error, it says, need to unplug usb. So I unplug usb and restart and load windows, and then it was successfully installed at last! Thanks for your help!
Hi LonerT, it already passed disk partition. But after that, Bootcamp quit unexpectedly. After checking disk utility, it has now BOOTCAMP partition. How do I continue from here? Thanks
What is the macOS version on your Mac?
Hi LonerT, macos version is 10.13.2
The thinlocalsnapshot command may help. Please try it before we go further. The command in Terminal is
sudo tmutil thinlocalsnapshots / 999999999999
(Notice the spaces between each 'word').
Hi ProximaScheev, ok I will try this one if it works
Hi LonerT, you have the same suggestions as Prima, hopefully it works this time. Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it
You may have a different issue, if the thinning of snapshots does not work. Can you also post the output of
diskutil list
from macOS Terminal?
Run BC Assistant, and remove the current partition and re-run BCA and try to install Windows.
Excellent. Please remember to backup macOS and Windows and create a Windows System Restore point.
I am having trouble on boot camp assistant, please help. While partitioning disk, I always gets an error ‘Your disk could not be partitioned’.
