Install Bootcamp support files on Windows without flash drive

[gretschdrummer]

Is there a way to do this? I found out that my flash drive is broken and I can't make it to the store until tomorrow. Would burning the files to a DVD work?

From within Windows go to apple downloads. search for bootcamp drivers, download and install.

If it is a dmg file you can download a MacDrive trail to access the dmg.

I don't know why that didn't occur to me. Thank you!

Yeah, sometimes the answer is more simple than we think, but, as I said before, if it is a dmg file you most likely need a 3rd party software to open it, MacDrive has a trail, just install it and remove later on.

I know where to find it, was too lazy to see file extension it has.
