Failed Bootcamp HD partition

I just tried to install Windows 10 using Boot Camp assistant. It failed.... possibly because I didn't put the Win ISO on a flash drive. Now my HD won't re-partition. I see that "Lonestar" helped someone else & was hoping I could get assistance too. Thanks

High Sierra 10.13.3

iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017) (Fusion)

4.2 GHz Intel Core i7

32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4

Radeon Pro 575 4 GB

MacBook Pro 17, Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Bootcamp created partition but then gave me "partitioning error" I've been trying to install Windows 10 through boot camp to no success...My machine is a mid-2015 Retina MacBook Pro running 10.13.3.Like the title says, the partitioning apparently succeeded but then bootcamp gave me an error about unable being to partition the disk:Now when I try to open bootcamp again, it gives me this error:The bootcamp partition should be the correct size/filesystem:Is there anyway to get bootcamp to recognize the created partitions?I would like to avoid having to wipe my disk, I'm at college right now so I need my computer (may have been a bad idea to try to bootcamp but I thought it would work).

Can't remove "Bootcamp" partition. Have tried all advice in support and community. I created partition but didn't install Windows. There is no option in Bootcamp to delete the partition; using disk utility to either use the minus button to remove the partition or to "erase" it leads to an error message. Initially I used "erase" and selected APFS and probably "unmounted" it prior. I just checked and it's gone but I now seem to have a variety of nameless "Volumes" one of which has about 40GB used which is similar to the Bootcamp size. I think I know enough about Apple OS now to consider that a re-install of the OS is the only answer to any issue that can't be solved within a couple of minutes; I expect that there is no readily accessible information in fairly plain English of what the Disk information means?

Boot Camp Partition unremovable So I set aside 100 GB for a win10 bootcamp install. iMac rebooted and during install had an error. I now am to the point where the partition does not show up to allow Boot Camp assistant to remove it, nor can I click the minus - symbol in disk utility to add it back to my 1TB fusion drive. Called apple and they had me format the drive but all that did was wipe my information off the 900 GB partition. I still cannot remove the 100 that I set aside for windows.Any help would be greatly appreciated as the next step would be to have to bring my machine in to Apple.2017 iMac latest update of high Sierra.Thanks!
