The latest macOS updates, which can include updates to Boot Camp Assistant. You will use Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows 10.
64GB or more free storage space on your Mac startup disk:
- Your Mac can have as little as 64GB of free storage space, but at least 128GB of free storage space provides the best experience. Automatic Windows updates require that much space or more.
- If you have an iMac Pro or Mac Pro with 128GB of memory (RAM) or more, your startup disk needs at least as much free storage space as your Mac has memory.2
An external USB flash drive with a storage capacity of 16GB or more, unless you're using a Mac that doesn't need a flash drive to install Windows.
A 64-bit version of Windows 10 Home or Windows 10 Pro on a disk image (ISO) or other installation media. If installing Windows on your Mac for the first time, this must be a full version of Windows, not an upgrade.
- If your copy of Windows came on a USB flash drive, or you have a Windows product key and no installation disc, download a Windows 10 disk image from Microsoft.
- If your copy of Windows came on a DVD, you might need to create a disk image of that DVD.
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 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.
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.

1. Overview
Simply put, Maven is a command-line tool for building Java applications.
The Maven Project provides a simple ZIP file containing a precompiled version of Maven for our convenience. There is no installer. It's up to us to set up our prerequisites and environment to run Maven.
The installation of Apache Maven is a simple process of extracting the archive and adding the bin folder with the mvn command to the PATH.
1.1. Prerequisites
Maven is written in Java (and primarily used for building JVM programs). So, the major prerequisite is the Java JDK. We need to install the Java JDK (e.g. from Oracle's download site), and we should install it to a pathname without spaces.
Once Java is installed, we need to ensure that the commands from the Java JDK are in our PATH environment variable. Running, for example:
must display the right version number.

2. Installing Maven on Windows
To install Maven on windows, we head over to the Apache Maven site to download the latest version and select the Maven zip file, for example apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.zip.
Then we unzip it to the folder where we want Maven to live.
2.1. Adding Maven to the Environment Path
We add both M2_HOME and MAVEN_HOME variables to the Windows environment using system properties and point it to our Maven folder.
Then we update the PATH variable by appending the Maven bin folder — %M2_HOME%bin — so that we can run the Maven command everywhere.
To verify it, we run:
in the command prompt. It should display the Maven version, the java version, and the operating system information. That's it. We've set up Maven on our Windows system.
3. Installing Maven on Linux
To install Maven on the Linux operating system, we download the latest version from the Apache Maven site and select the Maven binary tar.gz file, for example apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz.
Now we extract the archive to our desired location.
3.1. Adding Maven to the Environment Path
We open the command terminal and run the following commands to set the environment variables:
Here, M2_Home path corresponds with the location of our extracted Maven files.
Now we append the M2 variable to the system path:
Finally, we can verify if Maven has been added:
The output should be as follows:
We have successfully installed Maven on our Linux system.
3.2. Installing Maven on Ubuntu
In a terminal, we run apt-cache search maven to get all the available Maven packages:
The Maven package always comes with the latest Apache Maven.
We run command sudo apt-get install maven to install the latest Apache Maven.
This will take a few minutes to download. Once downloaded, we can run the mvn -version to verify our installation.
4. Installing Maven on Mac OS X
To install Maven on Mac OS X operating system, we download the latest version from the Apache Maven site and select the Maven binary tar.gz file, for example apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz.
Then we extract the archive to our desired location.
4.1. Adding Maven to the Environment Path
We open the terminal and switch to the directory where the files were extracted to and then log in as Super – User.
Then we remove the tar.gz archive:
Fix the permissions:
Switch the Maven contents:
Archive the Admin session:
Add Maven binaries to the path and append:
Finally, we use Ctrl+x to Save and Exit from “nano”.
To load the new set up, run:
To test the new installation, run:
We are now ready to use Maven on our Mac OS X.
4.2. HighSierra Compatibility
For HighSierra users, we'll need to additionally add Maven binaries to the path and append.
Ctrl+x to save and exit from “nano”.
To load the new setup, run bash.
