How to get Apple peripherals to work on a Windows PC

Published: 8 February, 2024

This guide will help you get your Apple Studio Display, ProDisplay XDR, Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, Magic Trackpad, etc. to work with a Windows 11 PC that doesn’t have native support for BootCamp. I wrote this guide because most methods that I could find elsewhere were either out of date, had sketchy download links, had compatibility issues with Windows 11 version 23H2, didn't support Windows Precision Touchpad, didn’t support all the modules in the BootCamp app, or didn’t explain how to get the most up to date Apple official drivers.

Please note that to get Apple displays to work will require either a thunderbolt output from your graphics card or the right DisplayPort to USB-C cable. Please refer to other guides elsewhere to find out what hardware you’ll need.

Preliminary installation

hyperupcall

// I'm tired of extensions that automatically:
// - show welcome pages / walkthroughs
// - show release notes
// - send telemetry
// - recommend things
//
// This disables all of that stuff.
// If you have more config, leave a comment so I can add it!!

.SYNOPSIS

Decompresses a Windows Defender AV signature database (.VDM file).

.DESCRIPTION

Expand-DefenderAVSignatureDB extracts a Windows Defender AV signature database (.VDM file). This function was developed by reversing mpengine.dll and with the help of Tavis Ormandy and his LoadLibrary project (https://github.com/taviso/loadlibrary). Note: Currently, "scrambled" databases are not supported although, I have yet to encounter a scrambled database. Thus far, all databases I've encountered are zlib-compressed.
