In particular, backup the Users/ Name folder, which contains your desktop, documents, and downloads. These can be found in the devices tab through the Finder application on the mac taskbar (probably named Windows or Windows partition). From there, make a backup of all your files on the Windows partition. If you are unable to see the boot menu, try connecting another wired keyboard (if this still does not work, it could be due to a hard drive failure).
HOW TO INSTALL WINDOWS 10 ON MAC WITH BOOTCAMP MAC OS
Select Mac OS using the keyboard arrow keys and press Enter. Hopefully, you will be presented with a boot menu asking you whether you would like to boot in Mac OS or Windows. Continue to hold the Options/Alt key until the mac has fully booted. Press and hold the Options key (apple) or Alt key (windows) while simultaneously powering on the mac by pressing on the power button. Shutdown the mac by holding the power button for ~10 seconds. Solution to anyone else having the same problem of a bootloop in the Windows partition of a mac bootcamp:Ĭonnect an external wired keyboard (can be apple or other brand - I used an old acer KU-0355) to a working USB port (I tested power to the port using a USB led lamp).
