For some reason I need to restore Windows 10 to the default settings and doing so uninstalled Bootcamp utility, I know its Microsoft fault. But we need to reinstall the drivers manually anyway & something is not right with Bootcamp Utility in Mac as its downloading the driver like forever even in fast internet connections.
- Mac devices prior to 2012 or newer Mac devices with the older Apple Boot Camp or Windows Support Software drivers have a compatibilty hold in place and are unable to update to Windows 10, version 1903. Specifically, devices with MacHALDriver.sys dated September 24, 2011 01:57:09 or older in Windows system32 drivers are affected.
- The BC5.x drivers are still downloadable from Install Windows 7 on your Mac using Boot Camp - Apple Support, which support W7/W8.1. BC5.x drivers do not support releases older than W7, which would require BC4 or BC3 drivers.
