I can't believe this: "Boot Camp only supports Windows 7 or later installation on this platform..."
Hi everybody!
Well, I finally got some time to do a clean install of Windows 10 after I got the free upgrade from 7.
But, oh my... This is so infuriating. Looks like it simply cannot be done in an easy way. Here's the thing. I already tried two different images of Windows 10. Both 64 bit. One is from the Media Creation Tool. Another one is downloaded directly from the Microsoft's website. No matter which ISO I'm trying to use, I get the same annoying message from Boot Camp Assistant:
Your bootable USB drive could not be created
Boot Camp only supports Windows 7 or later installation on this platform. Please use an ISO file for Windows 7 or later installation.
Well, hello! Apple, developers, anybody... Windows 10 is a "later" OS, therefore, it should work.
I saw some people having the same issue but nobody really gives a solution (only stuff like, "download a '64 bit only' iso") so, I hope we can find some kind of solution here.
I'm running fully updated Mountain Lion 10.8.5 on MacBook Pro Retina 15-inch Early 2013. Boot Camp Assistant says it's 5.0.4 (473).
