If you want to install Windows system on Apple computers, you must break the restrictions on "BootCamp". After users using Win7 system on Apple computers upgrade to Win10, BootCamp will also need to be updated. I encountered a problem when updating BootCamp, and an error message "Cannot find msi source file" appeared. What should I do at this time?

What should I do if Apple Computer Win10 system updates BootCamp and prompts "The msi source file cannot be found"?

Reason analysis:

Some users can install the new version 6.0 only after completely uninstalling the old BootCamp program under WIN system. So the problem is that updating BootCamp is a process of first deleting the old version and then installing the new version. If the system cache files, installation packages, etc. have been cleaned before, the msi source file of the old version cannot be deleted and cannot be updated without installing it.

The solution is as follows:

1. After upgrading Win10, if you encounter "Cannot find msi source file" during the update of BootCamp 6.0 and are asked to manually point to the source file, download the previously installed version first.

2. When you manually point to the source file during the update of BootCamp 6.0, find the Bootcamp.msi installer in the Apple folder in the downloaded and decompressed old version of BC folder in "Browse", and click to select it to successfully complete the problem. Install.

3. It seems that it is possible to use 360 ​​Software Manager to uninstall the old BC program and then install the update in the Win system. However, when uninstalling, you need to provide the installation source of the old version. In short, whether you uninstall or update, you need the old version that was originally installed. The version msi source can be updated to 6.0.
