Hi there!

I'm trying to install bootcamp on my late 2016 MacBook Pro 15 inch, with 512gb ssd. About 5 minutes after choosing the partition size for windows, I get the notification:
"Your disk could not be partitioned" "
An error occurred while partitioning the disk. Please run Disk Utility to check and fix the error."


Being that this is not super uncommon online, I have tried different steps to help the error.

I have checked the boot drive in Disk Utility, both in Mac OS, as well as recovery mode. I have also booted into singe user mode, and run the drive disk test commands there. Every time it says: "it seems that Macintosh HD is okay".
I have also tried to delete all local TimeMachine backups, as well as deleting a ton of files on my main drive, to free up plenty of disk space. But the issues persists, and I'm out of ideas.

What would you recommend me to do?
