RESET PC WITH BOOTCAMP?

I have a mbp 2015 with windows 10 pro installed. I have run into an issue where it says I have not authorized drivers. I am thinking about resetting windows. Is it safe to do that with bootcamp or will it get rid of al of the bootcamp drivers I need?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS High Sierra (10.13.3), Windows 10 Pro w/ bootcamp

Bootcamp won't reinstall on Windows 10 I have a clean install of Windows 10 on a 2013 MBP 15" Retina model. It was working fine and had all of the current updates. The Bootcamp software was working fine as well. The keyboard light worked, the trackpad, wifi, etc. You could also access the grey diamond icon in the access trey to check for Bootcamp updates and restart into Mac OS. I had recently messed around with parallels desktop on the Mac side. It had an option to use the Bootcamp partition to run Windows 10 without restarting. I tried it, but decided I would rather be in the native environment. I removed the Windows 10 virtual machine and then restarted in Windows 10. Now, the additional software that Windows needs to use the Apple hardware seem to have disappeared. The grey diamond is no longer in the task bar. I cannot right click using two fingers for the track pad and I cannot scroll. The keyboard doesn't light up, and the F keys don't function to change the volume or monitor brightness. Somehow my wifi is working. I take my USB that has the bootcamp software and it only allows me to "repair". After a restart, everything is still missing and not working as it should. I check add/remove software and I see Bootcamp on there with 6.0..6136, but the options to modify and uninstall are both greyed out and I cannot click on them. I have even tried to install the drivers by themselves, but that doesn't seem to do anything. Not sure why it's not repairing or how to get the software to go back on.

Do not use Reset my PC on a Mac. Use BC Assistant to Remove/Restore the Windows partition and re-install Windows as necessary.
