1. You should have a Boot Camp item in Control Panel. If you do not have it, then you do not have all the drivers installed, that you need.

2. The System Tray icons can provide functions which may also exit in Control Panel.

3. To run the two resets,

4. Please see https://help.apple.com/bootcamp/controlpanel/5.1/ for the list of icons and functions that should be present.

I am missing Apple Multi-Touch Mouse. Between Dec 27th and 28th, Phashant Vats somehow got "Apple Multi-Touch Mouse" to show up in device manager, but never said how. Did I miss a post somewhere in this thread?


It appears as if these steps are for AFTER he had the apple multi-touch mouse in device manager...

I have a late 13" 2014 MacBook pro running windows 10. I do believe I have latest drivers. Everything is running great except track pad is not very sensitive. I have double click and what not, I just have to hit it very hard for it to register. OSX (latest el captain) side is working great.


Thanks for any help. Cody

I re-downloaded "windows support software" from boot camp and reinstalled in windows like you advised in this post, but still the same.... Re: Apple Bootcamp Updates are not Installing on Windows 10


My trackpad mouse works, it's just it works very poorly. I have to "two finger click" for a right click like 6 times before it response. "Single taps" for a left click seam to have to be right on target perfectly for them to respond. nothing like how my trackpad works on OSX.


Thanks again for your help. Cody

Loner T,


Thanks for the help... , but...


Maybe I need to re-word my problem.... hope I don't get kicked off discussion group...


My Track Pad works, it just that it works like CRAP. I have to pound on track pad for computer to register clicks. Two finger clicks work, its just it takes me 10 attempts before it registers. I don't really like pounding on my $2000 mackbook pro if you know what I mean.


It's so bad that it's just about un usable. I am starting to get use to using the actual two bottom corners of the track pad for my "clicks".


"1 finger" and "2 finger" clicks need a sensitivity adjustment. otherwise I'm banging on my track pad.
