Boot Camp 4.0 for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard version 10.6.6 up to Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion version 10.8.2 only supported Windows 7. Previous versions of Boot Camp supported Windows XP and Windows Vista.
Initially introduced as an unsupported beta for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, the utility was first introduced with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and has been included in subsequent versions of the operating system ever since. The utility also installs a Windows Control Panel applet for selecting the default boot operating system.
The utility guides users through non-destructive disk partitioning (including resizing of an existing HFS+ or APFS partition, if necessary) of their hard disk drive or solid-state drive and installation of Windows device drivers for the Apple hardware. Boot Camp only works on Intel Macs, but given how well the M1 can emulate Intel Mac apps and even Windows on ARM, it seems like it's at least technically feasible.6.1.19 (29 August 2022 10 months ago ( 29 August 2022))īoot Camp Assistant is a multi boot utility included with Apple Inc.'s macOS (previously Mac OS X / OS X) that assists users in installing Microsoft Windows operating systems on Intel-based Macintosh computers. With Apple's plan to fully switch to M1 chips within two years, the Boot Camp update will be welcome news for Intel Mac users. Until now, Boot Camp users have relied on various third-party drivers like the Mac precision touchpad drivers from Github. That was way back in 2013, and Apple had yet to implement the drivers in Boot Camp until it finally did so yesterday with the 6.1.15 update. With Windows 8.1, however, Microsoft worked with Intel to address the issue by launching the Windows Precision Touchpad drivers and it's far less of an issue with modern Windows laptops. Macs have famously had better trackpads than Windows laptops, with complaints about the latter constantly popping up in past reviews. However, it only supports Mac laptop and desktop models with a T2 security chip released on or after 2018. It appears to be a big improvement over Mac Precision and third-party drivers, according to some Reddit users.
Apple has added support for Windows Precision Touchpad drivers to its latest version of Boot Camp, addressing a big issue with Windows 10 Mac installations, The Verge has reported.
