Touch Bar not working in win11

Is there A way to get the touch bar to work in Windows 11? I installed windows 11 on an A1706 Mac Book Pro and I can not get the F1 - F11 keys or anything for that matter on the touch bar. I tried opening the Boot camp control panel in windows and ticking the box for that but still nothing. I tried an SMC reset, that did not help either.

I also have all the boot camp drivers installed.

I seen post that it can work in win10 and tried some of that but no success. I'd like to see it working if possible.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.14

Well it does most certainly run windows 11. I installed it with the boot camp drivers for windows 10 as windows 10 drivers and 11 are usually identical or nearly identical. The touch bar is the only thing that does not seem to work.

It does seem to work. I followed the instructions for win10 but used a win11 iso. Since both Operating systems are very similar the same problem and solutions may apply.

The link you provided doesn't mention windows 11 at all, It might not officially supported yet.

Doing a Google search I also found some posts about the touch bar not working for some people even with windows 10. I suppose I will try some of those posts for a solution.

OK. I guess the link I provided is wrong according to you.

I still say Boot Camp does not support Windows 11.

I hope you get your issue resolved.
