SD Card Reader not working in Windows 10

Hi,

I have just installed "Windows 10 Enterprise 2015 LTSB" 64-bit to my MacBook Pro Retina. Everything is working, except SD Card Reader.

SD Card reader is not listing by Device Manager, but if I check "View + Show Hidden Devices" it is listing, but it is grayed.

According to device manager, the device is "not connected to the computer", but it is working when I boot in OSX. I have tried to reinstall the driver, but it didn't work.

Any solution?

Best regards,

Emrah AKYAR

I had the same problem as you while using Windows 10 Pro on Bootcamp (on my MacBook Pro, Mid 2012) and I think I found a solution for you!

I went into Programs & Features in the Control Panel (or just search "programs and features" in the Start menu) and opened it up. Then, in the list of all the programs, I scrolled down towards the bottom where all the Bootcamp drivers are (meaning the Windows Driver Packages). I selected the Apple SD Card Reader driver (if you can't find it, just search "Apple SD" in the search bar at the top right), and then clicked Uninstall/Change. Then I clicked Yes when the confirmation window appeared. Then I tried inserting an SD card into the reader, and it worked! It automatically installed a separate driver called "Broadcom SD SCSI Disk Device.

I hope this helps!
