BootCampAssistant “Install or delete Windows 7” greyed out
I need to install a Windows 7 on my MacBookPro but the installation button is actually greyed out.
I first managed to install a first windows but i needed it to be bigger, so i deleted the BootCamp partition with a live GParted USB and here it is, impossible to get this again.
Here are the diskutil list and diskutil cs list
And here is what my disk looks like actually
Please help me, i don't know what to do ... I got a live USB of GParted if needed.
Thanks in advance !

Check that you're using a legitimate copy of Windows, if you are not it could be flagging it and not letting you proceed. If it's legitimate then make sure you have all the up to date drivers

Mac updates Windows drivers, you might not be able to install if your drivers are out of date. Delete them and download again, that should get you up to date and hoepfully you can install on bootcamp!
