Installing Windows on a Mac using the official Boot Camp Assistant software is certainly the easiest and best way of installing Windows on a Mac computer.

Get the Boot Camp icon in the Taskbar
After installing Windows on Mac using Boot Camp, you need to install the Boot Camp drivers in order to get trackpad and other features working.
With default settings, Boot Camp sits in the system tray area of taskbar and lets you quickly access Boot Camp Control Panel which in turn allows you change default start up disk and a couple of keyboard and trackpad settings. The other advantage of having Boot Camp icon in the system tray is that you can quickly reboot into Mac OS X by right-clicking on the Boot Camp icon and then clicking Restart in OS X option.
But if for some reason, the Boot Camp icon is missing from the system tray area and it used to appear when you had installed Boot Camp for the first time, you can follow the given below instructions to add the same to system tray in Windows.

Step 1: Click on the small up arrow icon in the system tray (see picture ) to see hidden icons and then click Customize option.
Step 2: Scroll down the list to see if Boot Camp Manager entry is present. If Boot Camp Manager is exist, set its behaviour to Show icon and notifications by selecting the same from the drop down menu. And if Boot Camp icon doesn’t exist there, follow the instructions mentioned in Method 2.

Step 6: Now, copy or move the shortcut that you have just created on the desktop to the Startup folder. That’s it!
