I am on a 2019 IMac with an intel i9 chip. my problem is I am currently using a Windows 10 via bootcamp. I am unable to switch back to Mac OS however and have no Idea how to get out of it I have tried powering off and holding option and nothing shows up. I also do not seem to have the Boot Camp control Panel. Please help
iMac 27″, macOS 15.7
I sometimes encounter this issue too. Try holding down the option immediately after the screen goes blank when you do a restart. If not use the Cmd+R to boot into recovery and choose the startup disk there.
You may also launch the control panel using cmd
C:\Windows\System32\AppleControlPanel.exe
Switching OS in Bootcamp not working
