10.13.4 Broke BootCamp Bluetooth

I literally can’t believe what I’m seeing.

My Mac was fine after running the Windows update. I’ve been away for 3 days and turned it on when I got home, booted into MacOS which was fine, then rebooted into Windows and boom, the bloody thing isn’t working again. How is that even possible?!

I'm just in the process of trying your process above. The first reboot had the mouse working, the second...nothing. FFS, what the **** is wrong with this?! I cannot believe I’m going to have to delete my **** Windows partition again.

I experienced the same thing as you guys prior to the update a few days ago, i.e. appeared to work, but then reverted after a while. Situation is different now, I can assure you,

Sorry, that you guys are still having the issue, let's hope it's fixed soon for you.

I have a similar feeling but it´s not as broken as yours. For me, only thing stopped working is the side scroll, this is really annoying though since I use Windows through VmWare to work. I use a piece of software named Bluebeam Revu and the side scroll made it possible for me to navigate construction plans much smoother.

I was hoping it would, but it's now worse than before. I think probably because before it would upgrade to 1804, it installed the deferred updated - notably, KB4088776. After that I had to use USB mouse and keyboard.

I followed through with the upgrade to 1804 hoping it would all be fine, but no - not even the keyboard works now when in Windows 10. I don't think anyone is going to fix this - it's been an issue for weeks now, and I've seen no official acknowledgement. KB4088776 basically breaks the bluetooth relationship between Windows and macOS. When I boot back into macOS I have to connect a USB mouse (the keyboard is detected okay) to hit the connect button on the Magic Mouse 2. Then it's fine until I boot back into Windows - then nothing works at all. To add insult to injury, Parallels won't boot the new Windows now -"Configuration of this Boot Camp virtual machine doesn't match that of the real Boot Camp partition." I've seen this on some of the Parallels forums but I don't see a solution as yet. I've basically had enough to be honest. Good to luck anyone else who tries this... 😟

Sorry to hear that guys. I’ve had no issues for the last couple of weeks, and the release build of 1803 is fine as well. One of my friends doesn’t have the issue either.

I wish we could tell what was causing it for you guys.

So I ran the most recent updates and it has only made the situation worse - previously I could un-pair in macOS and pair in bootcamp to run without issue. Now when I pair in bootcamp, both mouse and keyboard will work for approximately 1 minute before becoming unresponsive - they will still be listed as "connected" but there is no input detected.

I’m just not sure it’s worth it. I only use my bootcamp partition for occasional gaming and right now it works fine.

I use the 3rd party AMD Radeon drivers as the native Apple ones are useless. Unless upgrading to 1803 is likely to improve my machines gaming performance I’m just not sure there’s any point.

Are you aware of any changes in 1803 that will increase the performance of the machine or is it more a cosmetic/security update?

Thanks.

I understand, but it may be worth a try to solve the issue at hand here. It's easy to roll back if it doesn't.

I haven't noticed any performance increase or decrease in gaming, but there are some nice new features.

ugh...... This is a wise warning indeed. I actually rely on bootcamp to run some deprecated pc software. I'm gonna go back to my pc laptop for now and relegate my macbook to email/web surfing duty. now my productivity will go down cause my pc laptop is a gaming laptop.

I have same issue too. Magic Mouse 2 & Magic Keyboard can’t connect.

iMac 27’ 2017, macOS 10.13.4, Windows 10 Fall Creators Update.

Same problem here!
