Question

Bootcamp partition error verify disk error

Hi,

I'm trying to install windows via Bootcamp on High Sierra. But I encounter some problems.

Famous 'Unable to partition' error.... 😟

First I had Time Machine enabled, I tried disabling this. Then I tried to partition FAT via Diskutil. This worked fine. So I removed that one again and ran Bootcamp Assistant, but again partition error.
Openingen diskutil saw that the partitions Bootcamp & OSXRESERVED where there. So I hoped on restarting and holding ALT down I would be possible to boot windows. That was indeed possible but get BSOD, so that didn't work out very well...

So I removed the partitions again and tried I once more. Same partition error.
When I run diskutil verifyDisk now I get this output. I can imagine that this could cause the problem. Anyone knows how to fix this?!

Since you have an APFS container, which already has a Recovery volume, you should not need the 134MB Boot. Also, it should be named as Recovery HD. Was this partition created after you tried to remove Windows?

As I mentioned I had Time Machine enabled, but I disabled it and removed all snapshots.

I try to install Windows 10 Pro 64 bit.

What is the year/model of your Mac (do not post the serial number) and the macOS version? What is the version of Windows you want to install? Do you have a Time Machine backup?
