Hi I still cannot see APFS Mac OS partition even after installing the latest 6.1 Boot Camp version. Any idea?

Hmm, interesting. I'm on 6.1 on a 2020 Mac Mini and I have this issue.

For anyone still struggling after following this thread, these are my experiences.

I have a Macbook Pro 2015 Retina. I had the problem where Bootcamp (windows) could not "see" the APFS OSX partition.
Executing "brigadier.exe --model iMacPro1,1" did not work, as the package was not applicable to my model
Executing "brigadier.exe" (without options) updated the Bootcamp version, BUT not to the latest release (6.0.x) - and didn't solve the problem

After installing Windows and Bootcamp, I then ran the Apple Software Update. Strangely, the version of Bootcamp proposed by the Apple Software Update was 6.1.x, and installing this fixed the problem (Bootcamp now lists the Max OS partition, and switches properly).
I hope this helps others who face this issue

@kleuter Running Apple Software Update saved my bacon 🥳. Thanks for sharing this.

Using the Apple Software Update trick worked for my MacBook Pro 2014 retina running Windows 10 via Bootcamp as well. Thank you!
