Hi,
METHOD 1

Step 1: With default settings, the mounted ISO appears on the desktop. Simply right-click on the mounted drive and then click Eject “file name” to unmount the ISO file. That’s it!

Once the ISO is unmounted, you can launch Boot Camp to partition the hard drive and prepare the bootable USB.

METHOD 2

Go for this method if the above method is not working for you.

Step 1: Open Disk Utility. To do so, click Launchpad icon in the dock, click Others and then click Disk Utility.

Alternatively, you can use the Spotlight search to open Disk Utility.

Step 2: In the left-pane of Disk Utility, right-click on the mounted ISO file and then click Eject”ISO file name” to unmount the ISO file. That’s it!

Your bootable USB...

Your bootable USB drive could not be created error in Boot Camp

Try running Boot Camp now to create the bootable USB of Windows without the error.

Hope this Helps,
