startup disk does not have enough space to be partitioned - Boot Camp

Okay. I have a MacBook Pro, 13 inch, mid 2014, running Mojave. I have about 350 GB of free space on my Mac. I am trying to install Windows through Boot Camp, but the Boot Camp installer tells me that I don't have enough space.


Where do I go from here? Thanks!

Run


sudo tmutil deletelocalsnapshots 2018-10-17-100213


and repeat for the remains entries. Check the output of the listlocalsnapshots command. If you do not see any entries, re-run BCA and try to install Windows.
