I am on 10.13.6 on a 13" late 2016 MacBook Pro and I am trying to install Windows 10 via BootCamp but it doesn't seem to be working at all. Whenever I open Boot Camp Assistant in order to create a partition and proceed with the installation, something goes wrong. Either the software update folder fails to download or the application fails to create a partition and throws an error. The weird thing is that even though it fails, I can see the Boot Camp partition unmounted under Disk Utility and apparently working fine when I mount it, but since I cannot proceed with the installation of the Windows 10 .iso from Boot Camp Assistant, the installation in general fails.

Any suggestions on what I could do? I tried making a bootable USB flash drive using unetbootin and when I booted from USB, my MacBook's keyboard and mouse were NOT recognized and I had to use a wireless mouse in order to proceed with the installation. When I reached the "hard drives" stage, no drives were actually detected in the Windows installation and therefore I couldn't proceed with it.

Any ideas on what I should do now? I always installed Windows via Boot Camp on my older Macs without issue.
