Hi,
I just want to have ONE big partition on my MacBook. I did have BootCamp but in some way it got changed/transformed into another kind of partition. BUT sadly the delete button - is greyed out.
Just give me please instructions on how to merge the 86GB partition with my main partition (MacOS).
Thanks in advance.

Post the output of
diskutil apfs list
Can you post the output of
diskutil list
Run
diskutil mergePartitions jhfs+ BCMP disk0s3 disk0s4
diskutil eraseVolume fat32 BOOTCAMP disk0s3
and now run BC Assistant and click on Remove/Restore.
