    Try:

    dont_scan_volumes +,BOOTCAMP
    

    Note that it's "scan," not "show," in dont_scan_volumes; and the name you specify is normally what rEFInd displays after "from" in its description.

    How can I change labels;

    like this

    Boot Microsoft Efı boot from EFI to Start Windows 10
    Boot Mac OS X from Recovery HD to Start OS X El Capitan

    Should I create manual stanzas for this?

    Oops; forgot the labels part of the question....

    You have some control of the labels by what names you give your volumes -- so for instance you could change "BOOTCAMP" to something else. For EFI-mode booting of most OSes (but not Windows or OS X), you can also rename the boot loader file.

    For full control of this, though, you need to create a manual boot stanza. This is possible only for EFI-mode booting; you can't create a manual boot stanza for BIOS/CSM/legacy-mode boots. IMHO, it's not worth the bother for something you'll see for a second or two when you boot the computer, except maybe in a computer lab environment, where many people will use the computer, like in a library or a school.

    Ok. I got it. Thank you for good opinions.

    Are that El Capitan and also Windows 10 so EFI-mode booting?

    menuentry "Windows 10 Pro" {
        icon /EFI/refind/rEFInd-minimal/icons/os_win.png
        volume "Windows 10"
        loader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
    }
    
    menuentry "OS X El Capitan" {
        icon /EFI/refind/rEFInd-minimal/icons/os_mac.png
        volume "OS X El Capitan"
        loader \System\Library\CoreServices\boot.efi
    }
    

    Are above codes true for manual stanza?

    I think I misunderstood "volume" command...

    You'd probably want to omit the volume specification from the Windows stanza (assuming bootmgfw.efi is on the same volume as rEFInd). The value of the volume specification will of course depend on the name of your disk. If your OS X boot disk is called "OS X El Capitan", then your second entry looks right; but since Yosemite, the OS X boot loader is actually often on the Recovery HD volume. (This detail varies depending on whether or not your installation uses LVM.)
