I apologise if I’m not providing enough information, as this is the first time I’m asking for help this way, please bear with me. :) I resized partitions last night; windows kept complain about not having enough space, so I followed these instructions: [this video] Now, when I want to reboot, only windows shows up. Please help?

I need to add some space to my Windows partition without erasing it. macOS Mojave, 10.14.6. According to this tutorial [this video] I was going to create a partition using Disk Utility, and then erase it and join with windows partition using MiniTool Partition Wizard. I'm stuck on the 1st step: I can't create a partition. It shows me an "Internal error" without any details.

I ran diskutil list and got this back: /dev/disk0 (internal, physical): #:
