So I keep getting the above error at the following step,
- Downloading windows support software - OK
- Partitioning disk - OK
- Copying windows files - OK
- Saving windows support software - ERROR
I have tons of free space on my SSD (MBP mid-2015) and I'm allocating 140GB for Bootcamp partition.
Below is the output of diskutil list,
roberts-mbp:~ robertdunbar$ diskutil list
/dev/disk0 (internal, physical):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *500.3 GB disk0
1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk0s1
2: Apple_APFS Container disk1 500.1 GB disk0s2
/dev/disk1 (synthesized):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: APFS Container Scheme - +500.1 GB disk1
Physical Store disk0s2
1: APFS Volume Macintosh HD 65.1 GB disk1s1
2: APFS Volume Preboot 45.2 MB disk1s2
3: APFS Volume Recovery 522.7 MB disk1s3
4: APFS Volume VM 1.1 GB disk1s4
The output of fsck_apfs -s -o -y /dev/rdisk1 is as follows,
roberts-mbp:~ robertdunbar$ sudo fsck_apfs -n -l /dev/rdisk1

Help appreciated.
diskutil list
command while the Boot Camp Assistant is coping the Windows files. This would get the size of this partition. You could also just download the Windows Support Software to get the size. Finally, you could mount the Windows ISO file and determine the size of the files. Do the math and see if there is a space issue.
