The list of supported models from the official article includes this one; and I seem to be at the latest updates for everything:
BCA only offers me to upgrade to windows 7 and won't allow me to go through when I select the Win10 x64 ISO I got from Microsoft website that the apple's website links to.
Is there anything I can do?
Thanks in advance.
you can't download the iso or ?
I can and did, the issue is with BootCamp Assistant itself:
Please post the MD5sum of the ISO file. It was corrupted during the download. If a wireless connection was used to download the ISO, please try a wired connection.
It is better to unmount the ISO, if it is mounted.
So, here's the md5:
MD5 (Win10_1511_2_English_x64.iso) = 3ca03a2c59ae5b58ca965a345d4f2ae1
but I have no source to compare it to, so I can't tell if it's corrupted.
Also, isn't the problem that bootcamp assistant version seems to only support windows 7 (see UI text)?
In your images above, Bootcamp assistant states that it only supports Windows 7 or later. This includes Windows 10, it's fine.
BCA is working fine, but it doesn't like your ISO.
Did you open the ISO after you downloaded it? It may be mounted as LonerT suggests.
Either unmount it, or restart the Mac and try the BCA again.
If that doesn't work, wait for an MD5 verification.

I get the same MD5sum...
openssl md5 Win10_1511_2_English_x64.iso
MD5(Win10_1511_2_English_x64.iso)= 3ca03a2c59ae5b58ca965a345d4f2ae1
ls -lgh Win10_1511_2_English_x64.iso
-rw-r--r--@ 1 staff 4.2G May 7 08:33 Win10_1511_2_English_x64.iso
Can you run the following two procedures and try to use two W10 ISO? You may want to move the ISO to Documents and leave it unmounted?
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac - Apple Support
Sorry, I hadn't noticed the line about unmounting the ISO; that fixed it!
Thanks a lot to everybody for their time!
Please remember to back up OSX, Windows and create a Windows System Restore point. Regular backups are strongly recommended and encouraged.
Bootcamp shows Windows 7 instead of 10 option on supported MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2013)
