Bootcamp Install Incompatible Drivers

IN the past, with downloadable drivers, many attempts have been made to install incompatible drivers on the incorrect Windows versions.

I have found a download page here: The latest date on anything I can find here is from 2015.

In anticipation to some responses, we can argue about it if you want but itll be a waste of energy.

Many other situations would involve going to a web page and downloading an installer so Im asking here for what Im missing.

Thank you for responses that stick to the point and answer the question.

I felt like showing a bit more of the process: 1) install Windows on a Mac with Boot Camp Assistant Ok this looks useful but the process is written for a fresh format and install of Windows.

Ok thats cool now I know Im looking for some Boot Camp Installer that needs to run on my Windows side 3) But of course theres no link to a Boot Camp Installer I needed to use the Assistant from the MacOS side and the thumb drive.

Wait wait, heres a section called If you cant download or save the Windows support software: Oh, but this section just troubleshoots problems you have with formatting your USB drive and with USB drive recommendations.

Any other system would just have an installer and even an update agent for download.

Is apple protecting IP and software licenses.

Possible. Are they keeping users from downloading the wrong versions of stuff Possible but there are other ways to do that.

They made a choice to handhold users through disk formatting instead of just having a download.

If you download install the wrong versions of stuff, that will nowhere going to help you.

If you dont know which driver you need to install, its better to take help of a good driver updater tool such as FixBit If you are unable to download Boot Camp drivers on your Mac computer for some reason or want to download Boot Camp on a Windows PC, you can use a third-party tool.

Such tool automatically finds the suitable driver for your Mac or Windows OS.

You need not take the burden of is it the right driver or not.

This is completely strange and overboard in every single other case of every piece of software that I have ever used, and I have used a lot of software.

Maybe if a person has only ever used Macs then they would not notice how unusual and cumbersome the current system is.

In fact, Apple used to let users download many things here: Meanwhile, bootcamp needs you to reformat a thumb drive.

If something goes wrong, the user can lose ALL of their data.

The instructions even go into troubleshooting for reformatting a drive, which is really digging in to helping a user complete a dangerous operation.

On the other hand, other companies have mastered the art of distributing installers that check your system for compatibility, or they work in a way that does not break your system if it is done improperly.

Apple had 2 choices: 1) performing a dangerous formatting option requiring an extra piece of hardware and supporting users who run into trouble with performing that dangerous formatting 2) distributing a software package that users can download, using modern tech to keep it safe in case Apple is worried users might mess it up.

So they chose to help users format things instead of any other option.
