Windows then restarts and everything works perfectly and I can reboot into OS X from the task bar.

I ran setup.exe and up popped Bootcamp for windows which installed all the drivers and the Bootcamp Control panel.

Rebooted into Windows 10 downloaded Brigadier and ran it and it opens a terminal identifies the model of Mac, in my case iMac17,1 then it goes directly to the apple servers and downloads the correct versions of everything required and puts into a directory it creates called Bootcamp. I pointed Bootcamp at the USB drive and again the files downloaded but would not save!ДЄ bit more searching pointed to me to a free Windows program called Brigadier Windows installed without any problems other than the expected ones of the Apple device drivers not being installed.ДЄccording to Apple you can download the Windows support files separately using Bootcamp and save them to a USB device, they advise USB 2.

I'm hoping this will install all the correct drivers etc.ДЄll sorted. Once Windows completes the install I will copy the contents of the bootcamp support files to the windows partition and run the setup.exe manually. I have also located where the Bootcamp support files are, it's mounted as a drive in /Volumes opening up the file contents shows several files including setup.exe While I have no mouse support I was able to start the installation process which is, so far going well. I then selected the Bootcamp partition and it immediately booted into the windows installer. I then rebooted holding down the option key.

Rather than remove all the Bootcamp partitions and restore the drive to full OS X I have quit Bootcamp leaving the partitions intact. Bootcamp creates the partitions OK and it seems to copy the Windows Install files OK but fails when trying to copy the Bootcamp support files. I have decided to go for a more hardcore approach. I've tried the smaller ISO with Bootcamp and it still fails.

Edit bootcamp partition from osx 2017 64 Bit#

Using the media creation tool that Win7 downloaded rather than the on-line media creation tool via a browser I have downloaded another copy of the 64 bit ISO and this one is 4.1GB while the one done via the browser method was 4.7GB, very odd. When I opened the Disk Utility app to remove the Bootcamp partitions I noticed that t had formatted it to 80GB even though I'd left it set to 56GB so there's definitely something odd going on.ДЄny help sorting this out would be greatly appreciated. When I start bootcamp it suggests a windows partition size of 56GB which I then increase to 80GB, on my last attempt I decided to leave it at the suggested size of 56GB bootcamp fails in exactly the same way.

I can remove the Bootcamp partitions and revert to OSX only. I've tried several supposed fixes thrown up by a Google search but nothing works. It then fails saying that the Windows Support software could not be saved to the selected drive. I opted for an 80GB partition and Boot Camp creates this then downloads the Windows Support Files and copies the files across from the ISO. I have downloaded the 64 bit ISO - Win10_1803_English_ењ†4 which is under 5GB so should work. I changed the win7rawdisk.vmdk to point to disk0s3 and the error I get when attempting to boot the guest changes from VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND to VERR_ACCESS_DENIED.I need a working Win10 installation but can't get Boot Camp to install it on my iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015).

I also looked at the partition information using disutil list and got this:Д¬ode: Select all Expand view Collapse view /dev/disk0 (internal, physical):Дў: Apple_APFS Container disk1 180.5 GB disk0s2ДЈ: Microsoft Basic Data BOOTCAMP 70.3 GB disk0s3Д : APFS Container Scheme - +180.5 GB disk1ДЎ: APFS Volume Macintosh HD 136.2 GB disk1s1ДЄpparently the conversion to APFS changed the partition map? Because the Bootcamp partition is now disk0s3. I opened the win7rawdisk.vmdk file with a text editor and noticed that it pointed to partition /dev/disk0s4.

Permissions appear to be fine, there is read/write permissions all the way up the path.
