Q: Wifi drive missing and scaling issue (small icon)

After I upgrade my window to window 10 (from 8.1 to 10) and upgrade to Boot Camp 6 (using Apple Software Update on window), my wifi drive is stop working and all the icon and window application also come small.

 

I have also try to download boot camp 6 from Boot Camp Assistance (on mac), but it dose not work either.

 

Could anyone please give me the solution?

    I have this identical issue.  I also found that my SD card reader doesn't work, is yours still working?

     

    I contacted Apple support, but they just arrogantly dismissed this a Windows problem.  According to them, as Wifi isn't listed on this site as one of the supported features, we shouldn't expect it to work! Only these features will work:

     

     

    Of course this is total nonsense!  Who will be happy to install this knowing that Wifi will stop working?!

    OK, so after I spent an entire day and night on trying to resolve this, I've done the following:

     

    • I uninstalled Bootcamp 6 by right-clicking on {USB drive}\Bootcamp\Drivers\Apple\Bootcamp.msi and clicking on Uninstall.
    • I re-installed Bootcamp 5.1 from my USB drive.  This restored my Wifi to working order.
    • I reverted back to Windows 8.1
    • I tried to install Bootcamp 6, but it failed.  I then installed it with this workaround.
    • I upgraded to Windows 10

     

    Now it seems all is fine.  Wifi working, SD card working, scaling issue resolved.

     

    Lesson learnt - one should not upgrade to Windows 10 before first installing Bootcamp 6.

    One more thing...

     

    So then I discovered that the Bluetooth driver wasn't installed.  So, in Device Manager, right click Update Driver, point it to the USB drive, and Voila!

    ....and another thing...

     

    I had to reinstall AppleKeyboardInstaller64.exe, as my fn key wasn't working.

    Log on to OSX, go to Finder > Utilities > Bootcamp, and select the one that says "Download the latest support software...".  Download them to a USB drive.  Then, log on to Windows, and run "Setup.exe" from the USB drive.
