I installed windows 10 and downloaded the WSS version 5.0.5033 for the drivers to work. When i run the installation, it looked though as it all drivers have installed, but then it says “bootcamp encountered error” so apparently, i have no bootcamp manager in my taskbar, no sound on my windows, no backlight and fn keys (osd) and my mouse has no right click and all it’s other cool functions.. but other things work, (wifi, Bluetooth, graphics, nvidia, and the rest.)

Windows 5.x version does not support W10. The correct version can be downloaded using BC Assistant -> Action -> Download. It should 6.0.6136.

what can i do? 😭😭

Download and install Windows support software on your Mac - Apple Support.

Install Windows 7 on your Mac using Boot Camp - Apple Support has BC 5.x drivers for W7/W8.1.
