I have a MacBook 12' and installed Windows (Bootcamp). The issue relies within OSX because Apple makes the devices work seamlessly across both platforms on both partitions.

I would suggest NOT removing any devices from device manager in Windows to attempt to correct the issue because the driver is already installed and working.

This is the logical way to approach this issue since you can continuously use the bluetooth devices across both OS platforms. It seems that the Bluetooth settings are inherited from OSX into Windows 10 in regards to the Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse 2. Your Magic Mouse 2 should now be re-paired with Windows 10

Add the Magic Mouse 2 back to BluetoothД§. Go into Preferences > Bluetooth Settings > Delete the Magic Mouse 2 that was previously pairedД¤. Restart the machine and hold down the Option key on your keyboard (this will allow you to select the partition you want to boot from)ДЈ. The way that I corrected this issue was to do the following:ДЎ. Windows wouldn't allow me to re-pair the magic mouse 2.

I actually unpaired my magic mouse with Windows 10 after a bootcamp install because the mouse was stuttering across the screen. Seems more like a generic way to do things if you ask me. However, this is not a fix but more of a hacking band-aid.

It appears on the Internets that the only solution is to go into device manager and delete the device for the apple trackpad. With new features for Windows 10+11 only, we can focus on the best (touch) feature support for the majority of users without making any compromise on backward compatibility for Windows versions which are already outdated.ДЇor the various Windows 10+11 versions, we'll follow Microsoft's Windows life cycle support, all details here.ДЄt this point in time, the Magic Utilities will run on any Windows 10+11 version, even with all planned features implemented.I would like to post a solution on pairing a magic mouse 2 with Windows 10 on Bootcamp when pairing has been lost.

Furthermore, Windows 8 has less than 6% market share and mainstream support by Microsoft already ended, we also stop any new feature development for Windows 8.

Because Microsoft already officially stopped Windows 7 extended support in January 2020, we stopped any new feature development for Windows 7.

Issues with horizontal scrolling and features like pinch zoom, momentum scrolling or external monitor brightness cannot be resolved with Windows 7 as the related touch and monitor interfaces (APIs) exist only since Windows 8.

This means we are unable to provide new signed drivers for Windows 7+8.x after 14th April 2021.ДЄll Magic Utilities version until then will keep working but we can not release any new versions for Windows 7+8. Microsoft stops Windows 7+8 driver signing support With version 3.1.0.4, we squeezed out the best general feature support for Windows 7, especially for Apple's multi-touch devices, the Magic Mouse and the Magic Trackpad. Turn your Mac computer on and boot to Windows.Now shut down your computer (do not restart).In case your Magic TrackpadВ still doesn't work on Windows try this: If you only restart your computer (without shut down) your Magic Trackpad might basically work but will not be detected by the Magic Utilities as it is seen only as a HID device and not as a Bluetooth device, hence our driver can't load. However, some Apple Mac computers seem to store the Bluetooth pairing information in the BIOS, so the paring can be shared between macOS and Windows.Д«ut this seems only to work if you always shut down your Apple Mac computer before you boot to a different operating system, so do not restart the computer. That's because both operating systems use a different random token (kind of password) to encrypt the Bluetooth connection. In theory you can't keep the same Magic Trackpad working on two operating systems, even it's the same Magic Trackpad, the same Bluetooth adapter on the same computer. It's a well-known issue on Apple Mac computers.
