Hello, those drivers packages are defined by apple, there is no custom build. It depends of the mac model. For some there are drives, for others not. But you can also mix and match. After you istall the drivers designed for your model, download drivers for a newer model and see if you can install them via windows device manager, by targeting the drivers folder. Sometimes it works.
Hi Bro! I have installed Windows 11 Pro on my Macbook Pro 2012 mid. All features are working except the keyboard backlit. I am running windows 11 as the only OS. Have used the bootcamp version 4.0.433 and bootcamp 5.0.533 version, they install all of the drivers even the sound key eject key and pause play key is working with pressing fn but my brightness and keyboard backlit is not working although I can control the screen brightness by slider on windows...
Hello, this video is only about installing and using Brigadier. I have another video with details about how to install Windows 11 on MacBook Pro Mid 2010: ruclips.net/video/TK61_7k3aoU/видео.html Maybe it can help but you need to take in consideration one important point: these setups are not supported and may or may not work. Also, even if it works now, things can get nasty after even a simple windows update. I do not recommend using it as main computer unless there is no other choice and of course you need to do a lot of backup to make sure you do not loose your precious data. Hope it helps.
thank you! trying to get my magic mouse working on windows pc, struggling with where to find the latest/proper -m command for my machine. Have failed to get my BootCamp folder to populate anything for 17,1 or 16,4 as you showed. Any way to make an explained video for how that works? Thanks!
Hello, Gordon, With Brigadier you can download a bootcamp version for some specific model. However, you need to know the exact model. (e.g. not 16,4 but MacBookPro16,4). Regarding 17,1 (aka MacBookPro17,1, aka MacBook Pro 13 M1 2020), there is no bootcamp for it because officially windows is not supported on ARM macs. For MacBookPro16,4 there is bootcamp driver available via brigadier. I actually own one (MacBook Pro 16 with 5600M graphics) and have windows 11 on an external disk and boot from it when I need to game but it was very very very difficult to install it. You need wired mouse and keyboard because trackpad and keyboard do not work until you install the drivers (bootcamp). I had several failed attempts to install it and finally I just installed it on MacBook Pro 2010 then booted on this one and installed bootcamp drivers. I had also various problems with bootcamp drivers and had to start all over again several times. Also, some drivers were not installed with bootcamp installation and I had to take all missing drivers one by one and install them manually (e.g. device manager, provide bootcamp folder path, etc.). So it is not a walk in a park and that is the reason why I have not created any video for it yet. It was even more difficult than installing it on MacBook Pro Mid 2010. However I can strongly point out: it can be done. Regarding magic mouse, you should be able to find it in bluetooth devices provided you have bluetooth drivers installed so this brigs us back to what I have mentioned previously. Hope this helps. Cheers!
do i NEED to install this bootcamp drivers or are they optional? i have a mac pro 5,1 with catalina and it says "not supported". so i installed windows from a disc on a completely new 2.5" ssd and it is working, zero issies yet. so will this bootcamp download give me any benefits or is it optional?
Hello, If you are satisfied with the windows how it is, there is no need to install bootcamp drivers. They are used if something is not working, like graphics drivers, etc. But I do not see why you will not want to install bootcamp drivers. Do you have any problems finding the correct drivers?

I was downloading windows 11 on my MacBook Pro 2011 version.unfortunately windows 11 WiFi doesn’t work & audio not working.What can I do please help me out…
Hello, it's a bit tricky if you do not have a functional network adapter. You will need to use some usb wired adapter because you definitely need network. While the base drivers can be installed with bootcamp drivers which you can get from another computer and transfer them via usb stick, also windows update can install important updates, bootcamp drivers included. From 2011 we have the following models: MacBookPro8.1, 8.2 and 8.3. However there are only 2 bootcamp drivers available: - 041-84708 version 4.0.4033 - 041-84821 version 5.1.5621 -> this one is more suitable for you. For windows 11 you will need additionally also a bootcamp version 6 too because you have to transfer some files. Please follow this tutorial that is for an older mac but maybe it works on yours too: ruclips.net/video/TK61_7k3aoU/видео.html
Thank for your video, but I met an issue when i run command: - urllib2.URLError: [21240] Failed to execute script brigadier - I am using win 11. Please help me fix. Thank you.
Hello, This is not related to brigadier. The error code 10060 means it cannot connect to the remote address. The cause can be a network problem or configuration issues, like proxy settings. If you do not have some weird proxy settings, you can switch the connectivity and see how it goes. For example, if you are on wifi, connect your laptop/PC to mobile internet (hotspot).
Hello, if you carefully watch the video, I have mentioned you need to open CMD and go to the folder where it's downloaded then run it from CMD's window. Cheers

Hi I have a issue. I installed windows 10 from boot camp but I reset windows 10. After that I lost the ability to go to macOS. Would installing the drivers fix the issue?
Hello, unless you have deleted MacOS partition, you should be able to boot to MacOS either from boot camp menu (in windows), choosing as boot target the MacOS, or by pressing command key as soon as you hear the startup sound of your Mac and from there to select the macos partition.

Hello Helena, By default brigadier will download the most updated bootcamp for that model but that doesn't mean it is the latest version.

So in order to download Bootcamp version 6, you must to run brigadier like this: .\brigadier.exe -m MacBookAir5,2 -p 041-98143
Hello Drtpile, The only MacBook Air from 2017 (according to mactracker) is a 13 inch version identified as MacBookAir7,2 so in order to download proper bootcamp drivers you will have to choose this identifier when running brigadier via command line (as detailed in the video). brigadier.exe -m MacBookAir7,2
Hello, this tool is an easier way to download the needed boot camp drivers for those who want to install Windows on an Apple computer (MacBook, iMac, Mac Mini, etc.)
Installed the drivers. I still can not connect external NTFS drives to Windows 11 on my MacBook Pro 2020? Any ideas what the issue could be? These USBC ports have been causing a lot of issues for me in general
Hello, it is strange. I have MacBookPro 16,4 and using Windows 11 exclusively from external USB drives: - SSD with the OS - HDD with games I do not use the internal SSD at all for Windows. Which drivers have you installed?
@YT 123 ah yes, I haven't figure out yet why this happens. I have to assign a letter to my external game drive each time. This did not happened with Windows 10. I am glad you did it finally. I do this every time I boot into Windows. Probably it started to become business as usual and forgot it's importance :)
Yes this is happening every time I connect a drive. This is not good. Did you find a fix for this? I use multiple drives all the time. I tried changing Virtual Disk to automatic but this did not work. Maybe Windows 11 is not fully compatible with Mac after all
It's not working on MacBook Pro 8,1 after downloading it's say Boot Camp Required That Your Computer is Running windows 7 And i have windows 10 and i want audio driver keyboard light driver and mouse track pad driver nothing much more
Hello, I have seen there are 3 bootcamp versions for this model. ================== There is more than one ESD product available for this model: 041-84868: PostDate 2019-10-22 15:58:15 041-84821: PostDate 2019-10-22 15:58:14 041-84708: PostDate 2019-10-16 22:15:07 ================== Along with -m you can use -p to select a specific ESD (instead of the latest one which is by default). Try to run it with these parameters and see if you can use those drivers: brigadier.exe -m MacBookPro8,1 -p 041-84821 Let me know how it goes. PS: if Bootcamp installation will not install all drivers (sometimes it happens) you can also install drivers by selecting the bootcamp folder from device manager.
@@perfectmobile2353 check on device manager if you see some devices without drivers and install them manually by selecting bootcamp folder. I have installed Windows 11 multiple times on my MacBook Pro (16,4) and each time I had to manually install a lot of drivers because bootcamp installation was giving error at one point. Also, as soon as you are done with network drivers, try to update windows because I always got newer bootcamp version via windows updates. It is not a smooth ride but it is doable.
Dear Zubilitic , I have a wired full size apple keyboard and using it with my intel nuc windows 10, is there a way make it possible to use volume command keys on my actual windows pc? Thanks in advance:)
Hello, Unfortunately I do not have a wired apple keyboard around to test but as far as I know the extra buttons require drivers and they are in bootcamp package. Theoretically you could browse through bootcamp drivers and install the keyboard drivers separately but you will have to test this. Try to download some latest bootcamp drivers, check on device manager if there are any devices not recognised and try install it manually: right click, update driver, browse my computer for drivers and choose bootcamp drivers folder. Hope this helps.
@@zubilitic thank you for your quick reply, in fact before I was using the keyboard with my windows desktop fully functional because I had done exactly the way you suggested but following a ssd upgrade I lost the functionality. I tried to install the bootcamp drivers several times but no luck 🙂 have a nice day 👋
@@levocil it is pity you do not have at least the bootcamp version you have used previously but if it worked in the past, it should work this time also. You can start with imac bootcamp drivers, download the latest and if it doesn't work, check with previous and so on. I do not think you will be able to install bootcamp drivers because what you have is not a mac hardware but you can download with brigadier many bootcamp drivers and try as suggested, manual installation of keyboard drivers. Let me know how it goes, have a nice day too 😉
@@zubilitic Thank you for the advice now I will give it a try to migrate os to the new ssd via minitool partition wizard, I hope this will sort it out if not I will try to find the right bootcamp driver for my pc :)

Hello, try to install the rest of the drivers manually from device management and by selecting bootcamp drivers folder. I did it like this some times and it worked. And another thing, update your windows via windows update because it updates also bootcamp drivers if a higher version is available.
Tried your method without success, Brigadier with console options -m imac.5.1 does download a .pkg file but crashes at the 7-zip stage. ( I have 7-zip installed on my windows 11 machine already) When I use 7-zip to extract the pkg file, it produces a file "payload~" . I cant seem to get past this point. What am I doing wrong...thanks in advance!
Hello, I am sure you wrote this in a hurry but for the others, the actual command to download bootcamp drivers for iMac5.1 is: brigadier.exe -m iMac5,1 I have tried this earlier and it works without issues. I have windows 11 and 7zip 21.07. I am thinking what could be the cause of your error and the only thing that comes to my mind is the free space on your drive. Sorry for the dumb question but do you have enough space on your drive? If yes, you can always uninstall 7zip and download install it again. Please check this and let me know. Thanks. One more thing: if you have a mac running macos around, an easier alternative to brigadier is bombardier: ruclips.net/video/9cGlitC-cFA/видео.html
This method is about how to download bootcamp drivers. If there are drivers for MacBook 5,2, brigadier will find and download them. If the detection is not working (very unlikely), you can always use the -m option with the model: MacBook5,2 as shown in the video. Which Windows version you plan to install on it?
@@zubilitic I've tried it but I think my processor is a 32bit Macbook I got from my mom and it might not work on windows 32bit because on some videos I found they only use the 64bit version and it only had *2 gb ram* installed so as a alternative I've installed Ubuntu, but also thanks for the indepth video *Edit on some corrections*
You wrote you have MacBook5,2 which has a 64 bit processor (Intel Core 2 Duo (P7350) ("Penryn")). Regarding RAM, it supports 6G maximum - according to mactracker - (2x 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM) so you should be able to upgrade it. Or at least to 4G according to Apple. It is still better than 1.

Hello Marc. Most macs have more than one bootcamp version and brigadier by default does not always gets the one right for you and for that you will have to use "-m model". Which mac do you have? Maybe I can pinpoint the correct bootcamp drivers version.
Hello Marc, Officially, this mac does not have drivers for windows 10: support.apple.com/en-us/HT201468 However, "I have heard" you could make it work by installing windows 7, install bootcamp drivers for windows 7, then upgrade to windows 10. However, to install Windows 10 directly it may be tricky which most probably involves testing/installing various bootcamp versions and see if it works.

041-84869: PostDate 2019-10-22
041-84821: PostDate 2019-10-22
041-98143: PostDate 2019-10-10
By default it downloads 041-84869 which is a bootcamp version 4.
041-84821 is a bootcamp version 5 and 041-98143 is a bootcamp version 6.
So in order to download Bootcamp version 6, you must to run brigadier like this:
.\brigadier.exe -m MacBookAir5,2 -p 041-98143
hey! how do I figure out what to write when I install the drivers, I have a macbook air 2017 and I'm not sure what to write so it can install
Hello, brigadier is for downloading drivers. You were able to download the boot camp drivers?
@@zubilitic I can't download the drivers bc I don't know what drivers to download
Hello Drtpile,
The only MacBook Air from 2017 (according to mactracker) is a 13 inch version identified as MacBookAir7,2 so in order to download proper bootcamp drivers you will have to choose this identifier when running brigadier via command line (as detailed in the video).
brigadier.exe -m MacBookAir7,2
Sorry about this question. But what the purpose of use this tools?
Hello, this tool is an easier way to download the needed boot camp drivers for those who want to install Windows on an Apple computer (MacBook, iMac, Mac Mini, etc.)
Installed the drivers. I still can not connect external NTFS drives to Windows 11 on my MacBook Pro 2020? Any ideas what the issue could be? These USBC ports have been causing a lot of issues for me in general
Hello, it is strange.
I have MacBookPro 16,4 and using Windows 11 exclusively from external USB drives:
- SSD with the OS
- HDD with games
I do not use the internal SSD at all for Windows.
Which drivers have you installed?
I fixed the issue. For some reason my hard drives where not assigned a letter on the new install of Windows.
@YT 123 ah yes, I haven't figure out yet why this happens. I have to assign a letter to my external game drive each time. This did not happened with Windows 10.
I am glad you did it finally. I do this every time I boot into Windows. Probably it started to become business as usual and forgot it's importance :)
Yes this is happening every time I connect a drive. This is not good. Did you find a fix for this? I use multiple drives all the time. I tried changing Virtual Disk to automatic but this did not work. Maybe Windows 11 is not fully compatible with Mac after all
As soon as I find the cause and a solution, I'll share it.
It's not working on MacBook Pro 8,1 after downloading it's say Boot Camp Required That Your Computer is Running windows 7
And i have windows 10 and i want audio driver keyboard light driver and mouse track pad driver nothing much more
Hello,
I have seen there are 3 bootcamp versions for this model.
==================
There is more than one ESD product available for this model:
041-84868: PostDate 2019-10-22 15:58:15
041-84821: PostDate 2019-10-22 15:58:14
041-84708: PostDate 2019-10-16 22:15:07
==================
Along with -m you can use -p to select a specific ESD (instead of the latest one which is by default). Try to run it with these parameters and see if you can use those drivers:
brigadier.exe -m MacBookPro8,1 -p 041-84821
Let me know how it goes.
PS: if Bootcamp installation will not install all drivers (sometimes it happens) you can also install drivers by selecting the bootcamp folder from device manager.
Done with this but keyboard backlight not working and Audio not working if u have any ideas to get this driver thn plz help 😔
@@perfectmobile2353 check on device manager if you see some devices without drivers and install them manually by selecting bootcamp folder.
I have installed Windows 11 multiple times on my MacBook Pro (16,4) and each time I had to manually install a lot of drivers because bootcamp installation was giving error at one point. Also, as soon as you are done with network drivers, try to update windows because I always got newer bootcamp version via windows updates.
It is not a smooth ride but it is doable.
Dear Zubilitic , I have a wired full size apple keyboard and using it with my intel nuc windows 10, is there a way make it possible to use volume command keys on my actual windows pc? Thanks in advance:)
Hello,
Unfortunately I do not have a wired apple keyboard around to test but as far as I know the extra buttons require drivers and they are in bootcamp package. Theoretically you could browse through bootcamp drivers and install the keyboard drivers separately but you will have to test this.
Try to download some latest bootcamp drivers, check on device manager if there are any devices not recognised and try install it manually: right click, update driver, browse my computer for drivers and choose bootcamp drivers folder.
Hope this helps.
@@zubilitic thank you for your quick reply, in fact before I was using the keyboard with my windows desktop fully functional because I had done exactly the way you suggested but following a ssd upgrade I lost the functionality. I tried to install the bootcamp drivers several times but no luck 🙂 have a nice day 👋
@@levocil it is pity you do not have at least the bootcamp version you have used previously but if it worked in the past, it should work this time also. You can start with imac bootcamp drivers, download the latest and if it doesn't work, check with previous and so on.
I do not think you will be able to install bootcamp drivers because what you have is not a mac hardware but you can download with brigadier many bootcamp drivers and try as suggested, manual installation of keyboard drivers.
Let me know how it goes, have a nice day too 😉
@@zubilitic Thank you for the advice now I will give it a try to migrate os to the new ssd via minitool partition wizard, I hope this will sort it out if not I will try to find the right bootcamp driver for my pc :)
I need help! When i use it, it just stops and doesnt work
same
Hello, I have not created that tool and I cannot foresee any bugs it may have.
However, you will have to provide more info. "doesn't work" is beyond generic :)
I am having issues with this. This is where it starts to have errors:

Hello,
If you have 7Zip version 23.01, try with an older version. Uninstall that one and see if it works with 2022 one.
When I run the command..it says this app can't run on your PC....I downloaded all the options available and tried it.. message comes same in each case. I tried to run through command...it didn't work..how could I run it then?
Hello,
Brigadier is not working or some bootcamp driver you downloaded?
@@zubilitic I downloaded brigadier 0.2.4 and executed it, message comes app can't run on your PC.
@@arunkumarsahoo1817 what PC/operating system do you have?
@@zubilitic I installed windows 10 in MacBook mid 2012 model. Can you share the link for brigadier software applicable to this model, please. I need to install windows 10 support software.
@@arunkumarsahoo1817 Hello, I am using the same version without issues, downloaded from their official place: github.com/timsutton/brigadier/releases
hi, would it work on Linux mint?
Hello, brigadier is a windows application. Maybe it works via wine under Linux.
Hello, I have the MacBook Model 8.1, MBP Early 2011. I downloaded the Win10 BootCamp driver under macOS. If I then want to install it under windows 11 and then restart = WDF VIOLATION :(
If I do the same with Brigadier as in this video = WDF VIOLATION :(
I then used the command brigadier.exe -m MacBookPro8,1 -p 041-84821, and I get = WDF VIOLATION ;((((((((
Please help! Thank you very much.
Hello,
Most probably you do not replace MacHALDrivers.sys before rebooting. Please check out this video (minute 4): ruclips.net/video/TK61_7k3aoU/видео.html
@@zubilitic i have replaced the MacHALDriver via LinuxPartionMagic, no root on Windows System32 Folder. And now... i have no Sound, driver are installed, but no Sound :(
Hello, try to install the rest of the drivers manually from device management and by selecting bootcamp drivers folder. I did it like this some times and it worked.
And another thing, update your windows via windows update because it updates also bootcamp drivers if a higher version is available.
I can’t install it for my windows 10
Hello Marc, which Mac hardware do you have?
Model, year. This you can see from Apple menu -> "About This Mac"
Example: MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019)
Thanks
No problem
what i did is just to open the brigadier and it's run by itself, but it stuck on 17.7% :D maybe i need to follow your instruction
If you just open it, will detect what you have and will attempt to download the right drivers but sometimes you need to tweak it a bit ;)
@@zubilitic actually i thought it stop but when i left it for a couple of minutes it went through. so after the command runs completed whats next?
Tried your method without success, Brigadier with console options -m imac.5.1 does download a .pkg file but crashes at the 7-zip stage. ( I have 7-zip installed on my windows 11 machine already) When I use 7-zip to extract the pkg file, it produces a file "payload~" . I cant seem to get past this point. What am I doing wrong...thanks in advance!
Hello,
I am sure you wrote this in a hurry but for the others, the actual command to download bootcamp drivers for iMac5.1 is: brigadier.exe -m iMac5,1
I have tried this earlier and it works without issues. I have windows 11 and 7zip 21.07.
I am thinking what could be the cause of your error and the only thing that comes to my mind is the free space on your drive.
Sorry for the dumb question but do you have enough space on your drive?
If yes, you can always uninstall 7zip and download install it again.
Please check this and let me know. Thanks.
One more thing: if you have a mac running macos around, an easier alternative to brigadier is bombardier: ruclips.net/video/9cGlitC-cFA/видео.html
I was getting a payload error so well on the 7 zip command line. So I reinstalled 7 zip to my C: folder and NOT Program files. Then it worked!
Will this method work on a MacBook 5,2?
This method is about how to download bootcamp drivers. If there are drivers for MacBook 5,2, brigadier will find and download them.
If the detection is not working (very unlikely), you can always use the -m option with the model: MacBook5,2 as shown in the video.
Which Windows version you plan to install on it?
@@zubilitic I've tried it but I think my processor is a 32bit Macbook I got from my mom and it might not work on windows 32bit because on some videos I found they only use the 64bit version and it only had *2 gb ram* installed so as a alternative I've installed Ubuntu, but also thanks for the indepth video
*Edit on some corrections*
You wrote you have MacBook5,2 which has a 64 bit processor (Intel Core 2 Duo (P7350) ("Penryn")). Regarding RAM, it supports 6G maximum - according to mactracker - (2x 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM) so you should be able to upgrade it. Or at least to 4G according to Apple. It is still better than 1.
@@zubilitic I got the MacBook 5,2 (white) 2gb variant with a Intel core 2 duo from early 2009, the one with a square camera hole however it won't let me upgrade to Mac os lion and above and its kinda locked to snow leopard and the browsers won't work due to them being out of date and other online features being disabled I guess but for now I'll use it as my college laptop , and also thanks for the information I'll try upgrading the ram of it if i got time on tweaking on it again :D
thanks
You're welcome!
Thank you
You're welcome
didnt work
Hello, you need to be more specific.
Only working for windows 7
Hello Marc.
Most macs have more than one bootcamp version and brigadier by default does not always gets the one right for you and for that you will have to use "-m model".
Which mac do you have? Maybe I can pinpoint the correct bootcamp drivers version.
MacBook 7,1 (2009 model) core 2 duo with the white plastic body
13 inches
Hello Marc,
Officially, this mac does not have drivers for windows 10: support.apple.com/en-us/HT201468
However, "I have heard" you could make it work by installing windows 7, install bootcamp drivers for windows 7, then upgrade to windows 10.
However, to install Windows 10 directly it may be tricky which most probably involves testing/installing various bootcamp versions and see if it works.
