This will create a folder "WindowsSupport". In macOS, start Boot Camp, and download Windows support software (via the "Action" menu).

(Note: My Antivirus software blocked the MediaCreationTool from making the USB stick bootable, so I had to temporarily disable my Antivirus software during the setup.) In Windows, download MediaCreationTool and set up a USB stick with the Windows 10 installation files.This circumvents Windows' limit of 4 partitions (including Recovery and EFI system partitions). So, I succeeded to have this setup, by having Windows 10 Home (version 1607 Anniversary Update) first on the drive, followed by the data partition and then by macOS 10.12 Sierra. Thus, in summary, I would no more recommend the method mentioned below.

It was not a hardware failure, as everything is working fine with a clean install with only macOS + Windows 10 (without a shared data partition) I guess it might be related to the unusual partition setup. Since some weeks, on my MacBook Pro 2016 with Touch Bar, the Touch Bar stopped working properly on macOS, and now it also stopped working on Windows 10, with Bootcamp asking for a restart on every single boot. But then I got several data losses on the exFat data partition.

Note: Everything mentioned here worked fine for me for several months. Disclaimer: Macbook Air + Lion + Windows 7 Boot Camp + shared partition answers a similar question, however with macOS 10.12 Sierra (or later) the therein mentioned step with removing the macOS Recovery partition does not work any more.
