How to install Windows 10 on Mac
To install Windows, use Boot Camp Assistant, which is included with your Mac.
1. Check your Secure Boot setting
Learn how to check your Secure Boot setting. The default Secure Boot setting is Full Security. If you changed it to No Security, change it back to Full Security before installing Windows. After installing Windows, you can use any Secure Boot setting without affecting your ability to start up from Windows.
2. Use Boot Camp Assistant to create a Windows partition
Open Boot Camp Assistant, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder. Follow the on-screen instructions.
- If you're asked to insert a USB drive, plug your USB flash drive into your Mac. Boot Camp Assistant will use it to create a bootable USB drive for Windows installation.
- When Boot Camp Assistant asks you to set the size of the Windows partition, remember the minimum storage-space requirements in the previous section. Set a partition size that meets your needs, because you can't change its size later.
3. Format the Windows (BOOTCAMP) partition
When Boot Camp Assistant finishes, your Mac restarts to the Windows installer. If the installer asks where to install Windows, select the BOOTCAMP partition and click Format. In most cases, the installer selects and formats the BOOTCAMP partition automatically.
4. Install Windows
Unplug any external devices that aren't necessary during installation. Then click Next and follow the onscreen instructions to begin installing Windows.
5. Use the Boot Camp installer in Windows
After Windows installation completes, your Mac starts up in Windows and opens a ”Welcome to the Boot Camp installer” window. Follow the onscreen instructions to install Boot Camp and Windows support software (drivers). You will be asked to restart when done.
- If the Boot Camp installer never opens, open the Boot Camp installer manually and use it to complete Boot Camp installation.
- If you have an external display connected to a Thunderbolt 3 port on your Mac, the display will be blank (black, grey or blue) for up to 2 minutes during installation.
How to switch between Windows and macOS
Restart, then press and hold the Option (or Alt) ⌥ key during startup to switch between Windows and macOS.

Rocket League is a popular arcade racing videogame gathering lots of users on the field of furious fights each day. Inspired by old-known football, Rocket League entails action-packed matches held between random teams who are riding their custom-built cars to score the victory. The up-to 8 players multiplayer regime will be a nice way to spice up traditional football with fast rocket cars burning the tires exploding into the air. Heat your wheels up and delve into the energetic online/offline gaming hit saturated with competition and fun. An interesting fact is that Rocket League literally revived the almost dead 2008 videogame called Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars, which was quite far from success at that point. Rocket League was developed and released by Psyonix for Windows, Xbox, Play Station, MacOS, and Nintendo later on. In 2020, the developers made Rocket League free-to-play but also ended support for macOS and Linux explaining this with the broader development of the game. Despite this news, modern technologies are moving on as well and become able to launch unsupported games on Mac eventually. To do this, we invite you to draw your attention to the instructions below.

Play Rocket League on Mac with BootCamp
Os X El Capitan Boot Camp Windows 10
This method is simple but time-consuming. If your Mac meets all system requirements above, this is probably the best way to play Rocket League for now. You need to set up a dual boot of Windows and Mac via BootCamp. BootCamp allows users to choose the system to work in on startup, however, you won’t be able to switch between systems like in Parallels. You will need to reboot your machine every time you switch from Mac to Windows and vice versa. Remember that Mac is just a computer, that uses common processors, RAM, disks, and other components. So you can install Windows on Mac by allocating disc space of a minimum of 64 Gb (to be able to run Windows and a couple of games). To set up Windows via BootCamp, please, do the following:
