I'm a happy macOS user since I made the switch from Windows in August 2015... never looked back ever since!
However, occasionally (it hardly ever happens) macOS doesn't offer me a good substitute for an app that I loved using in Windows.
So that's why I'm considering installing Windows on a separate partition, using Boot Camp.
- Now I have a few rookie questions about using Windows in Boot Camp;
1) How can I easily switch between both macOS and Windows??
Would there be somewhat of a 'choose your OS' selection screen during system boot??
2) What happens if for example I'm on Windows, and the installation gets corrupted??
(happened to me many times during previous years when I was still a Windows user, making the system unusable)
In such a case, is it easy to boot into macOS, and just reinstall Windows??
- Speaking about Boot Camp... I also heard about using 'Parallels' for installing Windows.
What's the difference compared to Boot Camp, and which of these 2 is the better, and why??
