Can't find bootcamp icon in windows 10

Question

Can't find bootcamp icon in windows 10

Installed Windows 10 via bootcamp this morning on my early 2013 15" rmbp. Followed an instructional video on YouTube step-by-step and everything went fine until Windows itself started up. Brought me to the W10 homepage but unlike on the video I was watching, a pop up prompt from Bootcamp never appeared. I am now stuck in Windows 10 and cannot locate a Bootcamp icon anywhere and there is no option to turn on wifi in Windows 10 so I am also stuck without an Internet connection either seeing as I have no Ethernet port on my MacBook. Any help is greatly appreciated.

1. Please see BootCamp 6 update not available on MacBook Pro mid 2012 with Windows 10 for the two methods supported by Apple to get BC6 drivers.

2. You can manually download BC6 drivers from Apple CDN using Brigadier (https://github.com/timsutton/brigadier) by specifying your model number available from How to identify MacBook Pro models - Apple Support .

3. As BobTheFisherman mentions, please also see Use Windows 10 on your Mac with Boot Camp - Apple Support .

To get back to OSX, Boot Camp: Set the default operating system, or shutdown your Mac and hold Alt/Option key when powering up the Mac and choose the OS you want to start.
