I have tried to get windows installed on my macbook air for a while but every time i try, I get an error saying that the disk failed to be partitioned. i have tried everything, like erasing the disk, reinstalling macos, i have tried it on older versions, tried using first aid and there weren’t any errors. my drive is 128 geb and I have a macbook air so idk what’s wrong with it and I have no idea how to fix this
MacBook Air 11″, macOS 12.2
i don’t download much and most of my stuff is in the cloud there is about 80gb of free space before trying to partition i give 50gb to windows and i have heard that’s enough for windows and there is 40gb on macos so i don’t think that’s the problem
Glad to hear you got it fixed. A word of caution, 63GB is not nearly enough for a Windows partition. Windows may install but you have no space for swap, apps, or data. Rhetorical question: when was the last time you saw a Windows PC for sale that only had a 63GB drive?
I fixed it on my own by just disabling FileVault, then making the windows partition 63gb.
How much free space is on the drive? You only have a 128GB drive, hardly enough space for a single operating system.
BootCamp always gives partition error
