So there absolutely no clicking with force touch trackpads in Windows? How do you move a window around? Or say use a paint brush in Photoshop? Since the new trackpads don't actually click in.
Got a tip for us?

No no, there is a simple click (plus there is a tap-to-click option). Simple click feel and sound is emulated, but the high-pressure Force click is not available in Boot Camp, even with the alternate drivers from the link above.
I have 2011 iMac.
I did the following.
1. Installed Windows 10 from bootable DVD as per Apple's procedure. I had Windows 8 DVD to fool OSX bootcamp app into going ahead with the process. Then before boot, I quickly changed to Windows 10 X64 DVD.
Installed Windows 10 as normal.
2. Download Bootcamp V6 from links posted in this thread. Installed a minimal bootcamp (bootcamp.msi only without any device drivers) I edited bootcamp.msi V6 using ORCA to remove installing restrictions.
3. You will need to extract the following drivers from Apple directory of Bootcamp 6 source and point the driver update wizard to those corresponding folders.
a) Facetime Camera = AppleNullDriver64
b) Bluetooth Device = AppleBluetoothBroadcom64
c) USB Input Device = AppleKeyboardInstaller64
d) USB Input Device = AppleKeyboardInstaller64
e) USB Input Device = AppleKeyboardInstaller64
(Point all the USB Input devices to keyboard drivers if you are using Apple keyboard and magic mouse.)
f) Bluetooth mouse = AppleWirelessMouse64
g) High Definition Audio Device = CirrusAudioCS4206x64
h) High Definition Audio Device = AMD (From AMD 15.7.1 WHQL Driver Package)
i) Grab AMD 15.7.1 WHQL mobility driver from AMD website. Extract them and point Windows driver installer to that folder to scan and auto install AMD 6700 GPU driver.
j) Intel Management Engine driver gets auto installed from Windows Update.
This is all that is needed to get done with drivers business.
4. Then I enabled SATA AHCI mode to get my custom SSD running up to speed. Need to disable sleep mode as AHCI and Sleep mode do not work together. You don't need to enable AHCI mode if you don't have a SSD drive.
Done.
There you go! iMac 2011 running almost as fast (or faster) than 2012/2013 iMacs. It is also running latest Apple software and the drivers are up to date.
If still in doubt pm me.
If you want to install the easy way, download this custom bootcamp 6 package i created for 2011 imacs and run setup.exe. It will throw some errors that few driver packages were not found but will continue with the setup regardless. Reboot. Much less bloated system. But with this method, you will get few driver installed entries in "program and features" uninstallation window.

On my IMAC early 2008. I upgraded to windows 10 32 bit from Windows 7 through the upgrade process, then I reinstalled the windows 10 this time the 64 bit version. For boot camp I used version 3 which is on the snow leapord CD. in the CD you need to go into drivers / apple directory and run bootcamp64 using troubleshoot compatabily and the all the drivers you need to install. There are couple of thing you will need to do thereafter.
1. You need to download the latest realteck driver (windows 10 64 bit) from realteck websbite as this get the microphone to work.
2. Update ATI graphics driver by going into devise manager and select update driver.
At the moment so far so good. I'm not going to attempt to install boot camp 6 as knowing my luck something will go wrong...
I also have mackbook air 2013 upgraded to windows 10 from windows 8.1. Installed boot camp 5 and everything been fine. Yesterday the bootcamp was upgraded to version 6 through apple update and once again all going good....

Thank you so much. I will attempt to try and reinstall this week, when I have the time. I assume this will work for both the 21.5 & 27 iMac? (I have the 21.5, I don't remember the graphics card option I chose at the time.)
There is no need to get Boot Camp 6 drivers for older Macs.
Windows 10 is running fine with Boot Camp 5.1 drivers. And I did not need to reinstall them after the upgrade: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/windows-10-on-cmp-review.1901628/page-8#post-21709901

Thanks, used your installer on my mid 2011 27 inch iMac and it installed perfectly. Downloaded the AMD exe installer and then manually updated the driver. Everything works great.

Yes - it works fine. I had it disabled in 5.1 and installing 6.0 installed and enabled a new version. Testing create restore point worked fine.
Ok, I reinstalled windows on my 2011 iMac. I used your download to do it.
I believe windows automatically installed the video drivers for me. I tried to use a tool to install them, but it said no applicable hardware found. I'm did have the ati control panel installed on my computer when I looked however.
My Bluetooth trackpad would not scroll. I am not sure if the driver was missing from your install package. I went ahead and installed them from this page: http://www.trackpadmagic.com/magic-trackpad/home. They work fine not, and the extra settings such as natural scrolling from trackpad magic are necessary for me.
I still have a hdd installed, so I did not mess with step 4.
Thanks for all the help.
I did not know you had Apple trackpad. Just grab Apple's Trackpad and install both the drivers by double clicking on them.

out of the drivers in the bootcamp 6 package zip, do we know which one updates the hfs+ driver?
It wasn't apparent which package included the applehfs.sys so I just installed the entire Bootcamp 6 and all seems to be fine.
Just to be sure: You did install Boot camp 6 on your classic Mac Pro, and all is fine? Didn't know Boot camp 6 was made for cMP.
What advantages has Boot camp 6 over Boot camp 5 on a cMP? For now I'm running Windows 10 with Boot Camp 5 drivers, and alls seems fine.

Yes. I'm using Bootcamp 6 on my Mac Pro 5,1. The only reason I installed it was for the applehfs.sys fix.
Version in bootcamp 5 vauses VSS to fail meaning you can't make restore points, backups or system images when running windows 10 in bootcamp. Version 6 fixes this.
It's right here on this thread... #62 and #63
