How to install Windows 10 on Mac

Origin Helper Tool Download 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 onscreen 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, gray, or blue) for up to 2 minutes during installation.

Normally, macOS limits application permissions and restricts its access to important system resources and user data to protect a user’s Mac from malware and potentially dangerous functionality.

However, applications like CleanMyMac need some system privileges to get their job done. In particular, it requires admin permissions to perform the following tasks:

  • Moving and removing items with special permissions;
  • Managing and removing Launch Agents;
  • Performing some Maintenance tasks, like Repair Disk Permissions, Reindex Spotlight, and Flush DNS;
  • Cleaning ASL Logs and System Caches;
  • Uninstalling applications from Mac App Store.

That’s why, when you try to run some of these CleanMyMac tasks for the first time, you see this dialog:

CleanMyMac 3 asks you to provide your admin password - the same one that you use to log into your macOS account. This allows CleanMyMac to download and install its Helper Tool. Basically, the Helper is an agent that receives permissions from the system to perform the above listed CleanMyMac’s tasks successfully.

Dividing an application into a main unit and a helper is a standard technique provided by macOS to make communication between the system and applications more secure. In particular, the application becomes less vulnerable to hacking attempts because its privileges are distributed between two separate units that make little use without each other. In other words, after you install the helper, the application itself doen't get additional privileges and cannot access your Mac without verification from the helper. Meanwhile, the helper has these extra privileges only and cannot use them separately from the main app.

Therefore, installing CleanMyMac’s Helper and providing it with your admin password fully meets Apple’s safety best practices.

During installation of the Helper Tool the following files are created in your system:

  • /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Agent.plist
  • /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Agent
