The best way to insure you are using the correct Windows Support Software is to use the Boot Camp Assistant installed on the same Mac that is going to run Windows 10. The image shows the WindowsSupport folder was copied instead, which is incorrect.Ī Windows installation can fail if the wrong Window Support Software is being use. You are suppose to copy the contents of the WindowsSupport folder to the root folder of the flash drive containing the Windows 10 installation files. In other words, I would expect to see the path shown below. There should not be a WindowsSupport folder. The $WinPEDriver$ folder should be in the root folder.

HOW TO VIEW MAC EXTERNAL DRIVES ON WINDOWS 10 INSTALL
The end goal of this process is to get Windows only running on my Mac, I do not want a macOS partition due to the limited hard drive space available, which is why I am attempting to install the whole thing from a bootable USB instead of employing the Boot Camp Assistant. I have downloaded the Windows 10 ISO repeatedly from Microsoft and I am sure it is not corrupt. Despite all of my efforts, I cannot get the installer to recognize my computers hard drive. I also manually used fdisk to ensure a hybrid MBR partition scheme is not used, as detailed here. The drive is 256 GB total in size and I have a windows partition formatted to exFat to try to allow the installer to detect it. I am running into much the same problem as detailed at Apple Support Communities. While the WindowsSupport directory does contain an AppleSSD64 driver in a subdirectory, the driver does not appear to function or allow the OS to detect the drive. I used the Boot Camp Assistant to download the WindowsSupport directory and then added this directory to the USB drive. The issue, I am running into, is no disks are displayed. The USB boots up just fine and allows me to get to the part of the Windows installation where I am asked to select which disk to install the OS onto. I have been trying to install Windows 10 via a bootable USB on my Mac Book Pro (2016 running macOS High Sierra 10.13.6) for some time now, but I continue to run into issues.
