I have a MacBook Pro retina 13 end of 2013, running the Mavericks 10.9.1. I installed the latest version of VMWare Fusion (6.02), then install version 8.1 of Windows Pro 64-bit. When I try to use the external Superdrive (USB) drive in windows, I get a message from VMWare saying I need to download Boot Camp support software to be able to use the Superdrive drive. I'm making this post from a resulting Windows 10 installation on my iMac.When I try to install the Boot Camp support software in Windows, I get the following error: I followed the instructions, first of the Boot Camp Assistant, then downloading the software from Apple support. Return to Boot Camp Assisant and confirm, to continue the process.Īfter using the Windows 8 ISO to pass the verification process, it can successfully use the Windows 10 ISO we swap in to create and use an installation disk.Rename the Windows 10 ISO to windows.iso. ![]() (Emptying the Trash will fail because it was already opened, but specifying it directly seems to avoid this.)

I tried duplicating the file and I was able to modify the duplicate, but it didn't fix the issue for me. The System Integrity Protection in newer versions of OS X prevents modification of Boot Camp Assistant.app/, as suggested by other answers.

Start Bootcamp and it should allow you to use your Disk/USB with both versions. (You may have to authenticate and enter your admin password).
