Hi there, the trouble you mentioned on the post needs to be fixed by Mac Terminal in macOS Recovery Mode. Read on for more details and instructions:

Step 1: Power down and restart your Mac while holding the Cmd+R keys on your keyboard. Hold the buttons before you hear the startup chime and until you see a progress bar. If you succeed, you will enter the Recovery menu.

Step 2: Click on the Utilities menu at the top of the screen and choose Terminal.

Step 3: Enter the following command into the Terminal:

Step 4: If you've entered the command correctly and there are no error messages, you can restart your Mac through the Apple menu and resume installing NTFS for Mac.
