Bootcamp Control Panel

I just recently got macbook and have used bootcamp to install windows. I have found that the bootcamp control panel will not open. I have searched around, and only found things like "swap ssd if you installed a new one" and "reset the pram." I have not swapped out the ssd and I already tried reseting the pram and nothing helped. I also can't boot into windows with the alt boot menu, only macos.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.7

Windows Boot Camp MacBook has only OS X stuck in boot loop Due to a Wi-Fi issue I attempted to restart my 2020 MacBook Pro that has Windows installed via Boot Camp, but upon holding Option and selecting my OS X drive, the laptop begins continually restarting and showing the white loading wheel. At any point during this loop I can press and hold Option and again select either the OS X drive or the Windows drive, but if I select either, it returns to this restarting / black screen / white loading wheel loop. At no point during this loop does holding Cmd-R for Recovery Mode or Shift for Safe Mode have any effect. If I restart using the power button without holding Option, I boot in Windows normally. (My MacBook boots in Windows by default, which I never changed because it wasn't ever a problem for me to just press Option.) Here's where it gets difficult. My Boot Camp installation was interrupted due to an error. This was a long time ago, I don't remember specifically what the problem was. Whatever the error was, after a restart it didn't stop me from being able to run and use Windows for the rare occasions I needed it. However, there is no Boot Camp Manager on the Windows side. It's not in the Taskbar nor does it have an entry in Control Panel. So I can't configure my MacBook to instead boot up in OS X by default, at least not from the Windows side. And because of the boot loop I can't return to OS X to properly install Windows Support Software to fix the missing Boot Camp on the Windows side. How do I either 1. Stop the boot loop and boot up OS X or 2. Get the missing Boot Camp software without returning to OS X Boot Camp Assistant to install it?

Bootcamp Windows Install Help So I’m installing Windows on my MacBook Air using Bootcamp. Everything is fine, I got to the stage where the windows installer starts, however I had to turn my MacBook off when it got there as it was so late, thinking I’d be able to just install windows next time. The problem is I can’t find how to get back to that point? It was right on the menu of installing windows, Bootcamp now only gives the option to remove windows, surely I don’t have to start over? TIA
