When they transferred the downloaded software to me, I received it as a folder named "WindowsSupport". We both have Boot Camp Assistant Version 6.1.0. In any case, I managed to bribe my friend into using their Mac to download the Windows Support software from their computer, which is also running 10.13.6. Furthermore, the heavy load drops the internet connection sometimes, so I'd have to download from the beginning all over again. Estimates vary from 900 minutes to 3000 minutes.
How can I bypass the Boot Camp Assistant Windows Support Software download step? Hello!I have a pretty abysmal internet connection (0.4 Mbps down) and downloading the Support software is simply not feasible. They made a choice to handhold users through disk formatting instead of just having a download. Are they keeping users from downloading the wrong versions of stuff? Possible but there are other ways to do that. Is apple protecting IP and software licenses. Any other system would just have an installer and even an update agent for download. Oh, but this section just troubleshoots problems you have with formatting your USB drive and with USB drive recommendations. Ok that's cool now I know I'm looking for some "Boot Camp Installer" that needs to run on my Windows sideģ) But of course there's no link to a "Boot Camp Installer" I needed to use the Assistant from the MacOS side and the thumb drive.Ĥ) Wait wait, here's a section called "If you can't download or save the Windows support software:" Ok this looks useful but the process is written for a fresh format and install of Windows.Ģ) "If the Boot Camp Installer Doesn't Open."
I felt like showing a bit more of the process:ġ) "install Windows on a Mac with Boot Camp Assistant" Thank you for responses that stick to the point and answer the question. Many other situations would involve going to a web page and downloading an installer so I'm asking here for what I'm missing. In anticipation to some responses, we can argue about it if you want but it'll be a waste of energy. The latest date on anything I can find here is from 2015.Īnother page directs me to use the boot camp assistant, but it requires that I have a thumb drive (ready to be reformatted), and I must reboot into MacOS I'm not going to do that.
