Hi!

Got an unsupported Windows 10 Mac Pro 5,1 and managed to install the BootCamp 6.1 Wi-Fi drivers update. This is how I did it.

1 Use the Apple updater and download the Wi-Fi BootCamp 6.1 drivers. Do not install, because it will not work on Windows 10 on a unsupported Mac.

2 Use Search function and type cmd. Right click and Start the command promt as administrator.

3 Type "cd C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update" and hit enter.

4 Type "AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi" and hit enter

5 This will update the Wi-Fi drivers on a unsupported Mac (did it on my late Mac Pro 2012 5,1).

If something is unclear, let me know and I try to explain in more detail.

Best regards
