Lately, I have wanted to open some.exe files on my Macbook Air (Mid 2013), but that is only possible on Windows. I have downloaded Wine, which allows me to do PC things on my Mac, but sometimes, I feel I have too many downloads on my Mac at the same time and it feels cluttered for me. So, I had decided to download Windows onto my Mac. There are many different ways to do this, but I will be using Bootcamp, which is a pre-installed and simple way to download windows. You can get Windows 7 or 8, but I would recommend 7, since I have heard that 8 can be very buggy and freezes up. So, here we go. You will need a flash drive, at least 8GB. First, you'll need to have a file of Windows 7. Normally, you would buy it, but you can only get it online or from re-sellers since it is about two years old. If you already own a Windows 7 physical copy, it is legal to download an ISO image online, if you don't, well. Also if you are using Bootcamp 5.0, it will only work for 64-bit ISO images. Download a Copy Windows 7 available from Microsoft until February 10th here: 32-Bit Windows 7 (use if you have less than 4GB of RAM) 64-Bit Windows 7 (use if you have 4GB of RAM or more). Download Now Version 6.0.7. Technitium MAC Address Changer allows you to change. This software just writes a value into the windows registry. When you re-open it again, guess what, you have to select the third task only! Big surprise there. Anyway, the task reads 'Remove Windows 7 or Later Version', but after you install the first two tasks it will read 'Install Windows 7 or Later Version'.
