- Опубликовано: 3 июл 2024
- Learn how to install Windows 11 on an Intel Mac using Boot Camp. I cover everything from downloading the Windows 11 ISO file, creating a Windows installer on a USB drive, to making necessary registry edits for compatibility. I also show a workaround for connecting to WiFi during setup needed to finalize the installation. Always fun to run Windows OS on Mac hardware.

![[2020] How to Run Windows 10 on Mac for FREE (Step by Step)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/qUfWTYkj4Q0/mqdefault.jpg)
EASY WIFI FIX: Choose the Pro, Enterprise or Education edition when installing (not the home edition) and there will be an option to install without internet.
EXTERNAL MEDIA ERROR: Make sure you unplug everything except for your keyboard, mouse and USB installer from the computer or Bootcamp may give an error during the install saying it can't continue with external media attached.
If you have less than 8 GB of RAM or a slower processor, you may need to use these REGEDITs as well (setting their value to 1):
BypassRAMCheck
BypassCPUCheck
Another helpful thing you might want to make a guide on:
Post Windows 11 installation, the audio driver might not be installed so there will be no audio from the speakers.
To find the Apple official documentation to reinstall the audio driver using the Boot Camp tool, Google for:
"Download and install Windows support software on your Mac"
The first Apple link document id 102465 should walk through the steps to install drivers on Windows 11 for mac.
what about 2010 models??
if you have acess to a windows system to build the setup USB RUFIS will make the reg changes for you.
Hey how can I use shift+f10 on MacBook Pro 2017 please?
@@enochmcgee I have a 2017. Just plugged in a keyboard to the usbC and all went smooth with the Shift+f10 portion
Nice work 👏 easily the best video for this work around! No scams or BS. Hats off to you 🙌
thanks for the guide dude! my mbp 2014 has sonoma too and i used your tutorial for it lmao and now i was looking for a windows 11 guide and found you again
Haha awesome, I'm all over getting these old Macs up to speed! :P
Was very helpful and easy to follow, thanks for making this.
Excellent, just what I was looking for. Thanks very much!
Great to hear, you're welcome!
After several unsuccessful tries i finally installed windows on my 2013 mac. Thank you very much😍
You're welcome! Glad you got it working!
@@AnsonAlexanderHi! Just discovered your channel! Yesterday my mom gave me her 2013 macbook pro intel for free. But im a windows guy, and especially want to try windows 11 for the first time.
Would those security concerns be eliminated by using additional anti virus software like Avast or something? And I use VPN.
Furthermore, do you have problems with sound? All the IT shops in my city say they refuse to install it because sound likely wont work. I really want to make this mac my dream pc but i am.by no means an IT guy. Any advice would be hugely appreciated! Subscribed
Excellent, thorough explanation!
It worked! Well done kid
Awesome, enjoy Windows on Mac!
For those trying to bypass the wifi part follow along right here I did this on my 2015 15in MacBook Pro
Push Shift and f10 together Command promt should pop up, make sure you click on it as you might think your keyboard isn't working
Soon after type this into it
oobe\bypassnro
After putting that push enter and it should reboot again as if you're setting it up with the language and etc. after continuing through it will now let you choose the option no wifi setup then it'll ask continue with limited access? (aka No wifi!) select it and there ya go!
And that should do it continue on through with ease!
It worked perfectly on my MacBook Pro 15" mid-2014, Thanks for sharing.
Is it smooth?
THANKYOU SO MUCH I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET WINDOWS FOR YEARS BUT NOW I HAVE FINALLY CAN DO IT (the download took 1 hour)
mine too
Thank you so much you completed my request
You're welcome, glad to help!
Certainly the cleanest Windows 11 Bootcamp install I've seen, requiring no third party files and downloads. Superb.
Thanks, glad to help and clarify the process :)
Is it smooth tho
Your video is very helpful!! I got different methods from the Internet like VMware or UTM but all failed for my macbook air 2014. So lucky that I found your RUclips video for such amazing tricks. 👏🏻 I successfully installed Windows 11 on my macbook
good job 😀
thanks very much
Awesome video. I’ve been using VirtualBox on a 2012 MacBook Pro to run windows, but its been a little suspect. Will definitely try this way.
Thanks - definitely worth a shot. I was prepared for the worst when I started the process but was pleasantly surprised how easy it was once I got the WiFi figured out.
How was it did the installation of windows 11 go well?
Thanks
Thank you so much. Following your instructions, I was able to install Win11 on my Late 2014 Mac Mini!
One thing I ran into was an infinite loop where the installer asks me to plug in an Ethernet cable or connect to WiFi. Although the MacMini has an Ethernet port, Win11 must have been missing the drivers.
I press Shift-F10 to get to the terminal. I then cd to D:\BootCamp and ran Setup.exe from there. It set up all the drivers and I was able to proceed smoothly afterwards.
Wow, glad you got it setup and great job with that creative troubleshooting. I'm sure it will help others out too. Thanks for sharing!
How exactly did you get back to boot camp to install the driver set up?
@@jordanjohnson7587 the USB disk should have an exe file that you can launch after you boot into windows for the first time.
Thank it is helpful
You're welcome
Great video. Is it just me, or is Anson like the handsome computer guy?
Thnaks and it help alot. On the other hand can you slow us how to enable TMP2.0 too can I kinda wanted to game on the window 11 as well. Thanks again 🙏🏻😊
Good and clear instructions. Any advice on getting W11 on MacBook Pro with intel and T2 chip?
So, keep the eGPU plugged in or use the built-in HDMI out on the Mac during this install?
Thanks for the informative video, what happens that the keyboard light do not come up
Hey , always loved your guides. One question though, will you please tell that how much is the battery drain when using windows 11 in macbook?. How long does your macbook lasts.
Like my thinkpad lasts 7 hours on balance mode where i usually do ms office and olay youtube and very minimal to no gaming .
Will be waiting for your reply THANKS 🙏🏻
it is the same amount since your MacBook still has the same battery. It might be more or less depending on how many apps you have downloaded and things of that nature. Hope this helps!
! Thank you so much for your videos. I have a question and was hopping you could help. I have a MacBook Pro with Macos Ventura and Windows 11 pro (Bootcamp). After your video about OCLP i want to try and see if it´s worth it but, don´t want to loose Windows 11. It took me so much time and effort to install it (if you know what i mean). So, the question is: can i upgrade to macOS Sanoma OCLP without deleting windows? Again, thank you very much!
How can we fix no audio device is installed error?? Make a video on this
Worked for 2014 Mac Mini, thank you. I will say Windows 11 runs amazing on this thing. Very impressed. Question though, would this work on a 2011 MBP 17”? I noticed in your title it says 2012+. Why would a 2011 MBP not be able to work?
Brilliant video: I installed a second hard drive in my Macbook A1286. I haven't installed W11 yet. Will Bootcamp recognise the second drive before I install W11? My plan is to install W11 on one drive, and keep my Monterey on the other drive.
Thanks.
This method depends on the version of Boot Camp Assistant. If you are using version 6.1.0 or later, which comes with macOS Ventura, you cannot continue with Boot Camp Assistant while the USB memory stick is inserted.
I tried many times to upgrade to Windows 11 (still Win 10) - Can I use the registry editing technique that you are demonstrating here to enable it to TPM 2.0 after already installing Win 10. I received this message on "PC Health Check" - "TPM 2.0 must be supported and enabled on this PC"
Thanks for the video instructions. I have a 2014 macbook pro running an I7 and have been running windows 10 on bootcamp. I gy et an error when trying to do the windows 11 update and says my processor is not supported. I think I may be on High Sierra on the mac side. Does this get around the processor not being supported?
Please can you select the second and third option if you already have the windows 11 iso file on your usb drive?
Hello Anson. Quick question. After updating a MacBook Pro 2011 Late to macOS sonoma 14.0, can it be updated using mac Software Update? Or does it require an specific patch?
once i’ve downloaded the iso and i go to bootcamp, once i click past the first page it won’t let me continue - it says i have to remove my USB. any idea why this is?? it won’t work when i try to do it without the USB either, saying it can’t install the software because it’s not currently available from the software update server.
exactly
If you find a solution please respond
I'm having this same issue, please respond if you figure out a solution thanks
I have a Macbook pro 2015 with I7 and 16gbRAM
Would you recommend more Windows 11 or Sonoma to use it?
Hi Anson, first thanks for this wonderful video. i ran into a little problem hoping you can help me out. i follow everything from your video but when i install window 11. i am unable to install due to different format of the hd. its telling me that i need gpt? format and i have mbr. now i know i can converted using windows terminal but would it effect the boot camp?
thanks
I need help with this, I have my MacBook update running on an external hard drive so I can’t unplug it from the computer. When I click continue on the boot camp assistant it tells me to remove it but if I do the Mac will revert to the outdated version I’m not sure what to do
Thanks for the very clean, to the point.. and informative video - i'm betting as i have a 2011 mbp i can only go as far as windows 10? - I'm trying to do some investigating on this as i really need a windows machine on W10 at the very least!
could you tell me something for that : Can’t install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server." How to fix it?
me to lol
How can I Activate after this.
Also Thanks alot it works great but no Audio
Hello Anson, I have a question for you if I may please. Can Windows 11 completely replace the MacOS system on an Intel i9 Macbook Pro rather than using bootcamp and having there be no remnants of the MacOs? Basically like booting up the Macbook Pro up with a Windows 11 Bootable USB and deleting all current partitions and only having Windows?
Yes, if you want your machine to be fucked up when your windows corrupt.
@@ZanzibarProgrammingAcademy It was my buddy’s machine. He was trying to remove the MacOs and basically have a MacBook Pro running windows which in my mind is ridiculous because a Mac is an amazing machine as it is but it wasn’t really working out so he just left it the way it was. Thanks for reaching out.
Do i need to keep the download on my usb drive or can i delete it after windows is install?
How can you access registry editor if you have a Mac with a touchbar
Hallo, How i can put Shift+F10 for the Macbook Pro 2017 ? Because i want put the Win 11 on the Macbook pro 2017.How i can do it ?Thank you.
I’m unable to pull up the “command prompt” at the “setup screen”
Do you plug in usb drive after in bootcamp
anyway to do this if i dont have a usb large enough? thanks.
Is it okay if you don’t do the registry edits?
I’m trying to install windows 10 on the wifi part do I have to do the same thing? Or does it allow me to connect to my wifi easily
do i have to always have the ethernet cable plugged into my mac when i’m using windows 11?
Will this work on my MacBook Air 2023 with M2 Chip?
So can I keep all my files and data and use visual studio (since it’s leaving Mac)
Please let me know as I’m new and thank you
Did you get the answer because i want it to
I tried to follow your steps on Ventura, but there is a difference. Are there solutions for Ventura?
Thanks for you I install windows but there’s still a problem in this window 10 (I installed win 10 instead 11) I can’t record desktop audio only microphone to record the audio
What should I do?
nice video man but does this work with the Macbook pro M3?
No Intel only
I used an underscore in my new key and Windows said it was not supported on this PC. I went back and removed the underscore and it worked. (2013 iMac 27” OCLP Sonoma 14.5)
How are you using macOS sonoma on the macbook?
hey on my Mac Pro 2020 it s till make the error of external media can I continue without a usb ?
Hey, when following your steps, after choosing the language it doesn't ask me to activate. Instead it just says start install. After clicking this it fails because of an unattend file?
it rebooted but then went back to my imac screen what folder should i go in to click for the windows?
Does this effect mac battery?
I followed the install directions thank you so much! But now there’s no sound! 😖
You can skip the needed network on installation in pro version of the install.
Windows 11 Pro, Enterprise and Education users can click on "I don't have internet" and proceed to complete the setup with a local user account; however, Home edition users don't have this option.
But most appreciated for the easy install, super simple regedit for tmp!! :)
Oh, wow, that is good to know. I'll pin a comment, thanks!
You're welcome, glad it helped :)
ahh man it didnt even work! still says doesnt meet minimum requirements on macbook pro retina 2012 with all 4 regedits

Amazing tutorial! I'm stuck though at the Boot Camp Assistant were I get the error message ''Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server''. How do I precede?
Does this work with a type c flash drive?
Hi, I get this error when choosing BOOTCAMP partition to install Win11:
We couldn't create a new partition or locate an exiating one.
I tried this procedure on my iMac 27 2020 but it doesn't work, this version of mac does not require external USB. Bootcamp asks to partition the disk, selects the Windows ISO, but stops when downloading the drivers and displays the message "Software cannot be installed because it is not currently available from the software update server". You can't even prevent it from downloading the drivers and inserting them later.
Hey I’m also having this problem did you ever find a fix?
Same here
Can I take it off whenever I want or how can I take it off etc?
is it possible to install windows for mac to external SSD? Thanks
I have early 2011 macbook pro running high sierra, bootcamp does not allow me to select the win 11 iso… it only looks to for the installer in optical drive
Well, you should be able to get past that part but, for Macs earlier than 2012, you will stopped later on anyway because the drive is not in GPT format. Maybe that is the reason for the error. For Macs made before 2012 a third party tool is needed to reformat the Drive using GPT.
Hello Anson
Is usb drive important for the download or can we just do it without the USB drive.
That’s what I need to know
Do the micro SD card slots still function?
hi
i just installed sonoma on my macbook pro 2017 watching your video and it upgraded succesfully. but now it is not showing any networks. Can you give me a solution to this?
hello friend can you answer this FN+? Were you able to run the functions? They are not active for me, and the touchpad does not work when right clicking. It has Windows 11 inside and its features are Macbook Air 2013
I tried to press continue in bootcamp but it told be to eject external storage so when I did it, it still didnt let me continue on to the software so now im confused because I ejected them
Would this be easier to do on a brand new Mac with no previous data? And would u do anything different?
I have MBP late 2008 and hoped to use bootcamp to install W10 on the 2nd SSD that I placed instead DVD drive. It didn't work, bootcamp doesn't see that 2nd SSD. Afterall I placed linux there and it wasn't a problem.
Everything worked fine i now have working win 11 but Boot camp isn't installed and there is no sound in windows. Any fix?
Can you uninstall the macOS after the windows installation so you have a normal windows 11 "laptop"?
It blue screened me and restarted during the initial boot after the setup. What do I do? It now says it can’t setup because there was an error
Does it come with product key?
Hey Anson, Love the video, I have one question how do you remove it if you dont want it anymore
You just run bootcamp assistant and remove the windows partition.
Hey thanks a lot it worked for me. I’m having an issue where there’s no sound coming from the speakers (even tho the speakers work fine on my mac partition), and yet if I connect headphones it works. I tried updating and reinstalling the drivers, but nothing. Any ideas what could be going on? Thanks
I get an error in Boot Camp Assistant under Task Status as it says it's "Downloading Windows support software..." and error says "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server". Any thoughts?
same
@AnsonAlexander why do you need the usb drive? can't you just install it on the hard drive? because my BootCamp Assistant says that all I need is an ISO File
Hello Anson, I have just a problem when i was trying to instal Windows onto my 2020 Mac Pro on update Sonoma. It appears with the message 'Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.' Could you please give me some advice? Thank you

Not working, "your bootable usb drive could not be created".. Any fix for this?
I can’t open boot camp with the usb storage in my iMac
Will this work with OpenCore Legacy Patcher running Sonoma on a 2012 iMac? Will I have to find specific older drivers or will the Bootcamp drivers work?
J'ai la même question. Je souhaite installer Ventura avec OpenCore Legacy Patcher.
thank you for the guide. I tried to install Win 11 but keep getting error "windows cannot install required files. make sure all files required for installation are available and restart the installation. error code 0x80070070"
