Unable to use bootcamp assistant to instal windows 10 on a macbook retina 2016.
I have tried some of the solutions posted here Your disk could not be partitioned !
- Booted into safe mode and then booted normaly
- Booted into internet recovery and used in terminal diskutil repairDisk disk0
- Reseted SMC and NVRAM
Still getting the BCA error.
MacBook, macOS High Sierra (10.13.4)
Boot into Internet Recovery, click on Utilities -> Terminal, and run
diskutil unmountDisk disk0
gpt add -i 3 -b 87723520 -s 34414608 -t windows /dev/disk0
diskutil unmountDisk disk0
diskutil repairDisk disk0
Boot normally, click on BCA, and click on Restore/Remove. One you have a clean APFS container, re-run BCA and try to install Windows. Do not connect any external storage unless BCA prompts you to.

no snapshots.
You have quite a bit free space. Can you post the output of
sudo gpt -vv -r show /dev/disk0
You may need to temporarily disable SIP - SIP - Enable and Disable steps .
Post the output of
sudo tmutil listlocalsnapshots /
The mounted ISO image should be 4+GB. Can you run
fsck_apfs -n -l /dev/disk1
If you get an error, try and run it with the the "-l" flag.
Try
sudo fsck_apfs -n -l /dev/disk1
You do not have snapshots, and the fsck is clean. As a test, in Disk Utility, can you try creating a FAT partition of the size you want Windows to be?
Thank you so much! that repaired the problem.
Please re-enable SIP, and create a backup of macOS, Windows and create a Windows System Restore point.
