Cannot remove Boot Camp partition
Hello! I want to remove my Boot Camp partition but I can't. Boot Camp, for whatever reason cannot detect my Boot Camp partition. Please help me.
MacBook Air, macOS High Sierra (10.13.2)
FAT partitions cannot be merged. So we convert them to JHFS+, merge them, convert them back to FAT, and allow BCA to restore them.

In Terminal, run (only once) and post the output of
diskutil eraseVolume jhfs+ BC1 disk0s3
diskutil eraseVolume jhfs+ BC2 disk0s4
diskutil mergePartitions jhfs+ BCMP dik0s3 disk0s4
diskutil list
If you see only disk0s3 (and do not see disk0s4 any more), then
diskutil eraseVolume fat32 BOOTCAMP disk0s3
and now run BC Assistant and click on Restore/Remove.
What is the year/model of your Mac (do not post the serial number of the Mac) and macOS version? From Terminal, post the output of
diskutil list
Thank you! I will first make a backup just in case something goes wrong, I will try your suggestion and then I will rate it. Thanks a lot!
Yes, a backup is always good to have. ✅
Can you explain (if possible) what do those commands do?
Thank you!
