After I went through the Bootcamp installation, dedicating 60gb of space to Bootcamp. Then the MacBook Pro restarted to Windows automatically, and I all that was left for me to do was to go through the process for setting up the Windows. But while doing that, when I was on the screen that asked for the Product Key for the Windows, I left the MBP open and connected the power cord and I was away for a few hours, but when I returned to it it was disconnected and the the battery had ran out.
So I powered it on and pressed Option to see if I could choose Windows, after which I hoped it would go to same page where I left off (the place where I have to enter the Key).
But it unfortunately, I tried restarting 3 times while pressing the Option key, but it keeps going to Mac only and does not give me an option to go to Windows.
And when I log into Mac, I see that 60 gb of space that I assigned to Bootcamp is gone from the Mac OS.
I was thinking I should destroy the Bootcamp, by maybe re-installing Mojave (which I hope would wipe everything in the internal drive) and then migrating from a backup before I made the Bootcamp. But would there be a better way than this?
Is there a way to just get rid of Bootcamp without erasing the whole drive?
I tried Restoring Bootcamp on Disk Utility but it didn't work. (It says "Restore process has failed." Details says: "
Could not change the partition type for /dev/disk0s3 - Operation not permitted
The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error 1.)"
I went into Recovery mode and tried restoring bootcamp but it didn't work (it's saying the drive I was trying to restore it to didn't have enough space).
