Boot Camp, details and boot options

Hello friends,

I'm working with a 16" MBP (2019) hosting a dual-boot of Catalina (latest)/Win 10 Pro x64 (latest) via Boot Camp.


When making an OS selection my choices appear like this (see screen grab) "boot choices".

boot choices


However, the Apple website »support.apple.com/en-us/HT208123

gives the strong impression that a properly installed Win 10/Boot Camp will appear this way "textbook setup"


textbook setup


My sincere QUESTION is

What have I done wrong to get a different result than when the manufacturer of Boot Camp does it?

That is, why/how is my setup different, please?


Yes, I followed the Apple process verbatim

»support.apple.com/guide/ ··· 3bf2/mac


Concerning Differences:

1. Order is reversed (Win/Mac vs. Mac/Bootcamp),

2. Icon for Win/Bootcamp is different, and

3. Windows choice is named differently ("Windows" vs. "Boot Camp")


--> Your kind details & feedback is appreciated, especially from current, actual Boot Camp users. Thanks!


Kind regards, Joe
