I don't use Windows Bootcamp so I'm not familiar with the way you can switch back to macOS through Windows.


You can Option Boot the laptop to access the Mac's Apple boot picker menu where you can select the macOS boot volume. Press & hold the Option key immediately after hearing the startup chime.


If you modified the drive layout or partitions since using Windows Bootcamp or used any Windows based drive repair tools, then you may have broken things and need to start completely over.
