I’ve just tried this on Bluetooth and wifi icons in menu extra but the way I’ve accomplished it is: 1. vo+m twice to go to menus extra 2. move to the icon you want, i.e. bluetooth 3. Route mouse cursor to vo cursor with vo+command+f5 and confirm the routing with vo+f5 4. disable trackpad commande

I think any modern apple device will be fine if you want bootcamp windows, but I would still recommend a pro model with solid state and upgraded ram for virtualization. Fusion really seems to kick the crap out of baseline models in my experience. Best, Erik On July 22, 2019 10:33:15 PM Ibr

Hello Ibraheem, You probably know this already, but I don’t think you can use Windows on the Mac books that have a Touch Bar. I have a MacBook Pro 15 inch with the Touch Bar and have been told I can’t run windows on it, suits me fine as I don’t really want to. Sent from Petrus's iPhone > On 24
