![]() ![]() MU is not the place to debate the technology, just wanted to give heads up to users that given all this, YOU BETTER HOLD ON to a few Macs that run Mojave and F11 for right now till all this settles out, if your business relies on running Windows on a Mac. Windows ARM based MIGHT run on Apple Silicon, same with ARM based Linux just not enough information yet, not even sure all the major players (Apple, Microsoft, Linux world) really know what is going to happen, unless they have had talks behind closed doors, but unlikely Apple would have tipped their hat, and frankly running Windows on a Mac is not high on Apple's priority list. Emulation might work, but anyone's guess how efficient that will be. Virtualization of Windows Intel x86 on Apple Silicon, as we have come to enjoy with Fusion and Parallels, is not possible (don't confuse virtualization with EMULATION, as many people do). With the coming of Apple Silicon, which is NOT Intel architecture, Apple has made very clear that BootCamp will not be available. VMWare Workstation and Fusion will cross license). F12 Pro will replace F11 Pro and will include license for 3 devices, INCLUDING Windows and Linux (i.e. ![]() Fusion 12 PLAYER will be free for personal use and replaces the 'standard' version of Fusion 11. If you buy F11 after June 15, you will get a free upgrade. F11 will be the last release to support Mojave. The future of Fusion: Fusion 12 is coming (already available as Technology Preview), it is based on very different design and is only for Catalina or Big Sur due to Apple design changes in macOS. Next Question, if you can run Windows ARM as VM on a M1 Mac, will it be possible some day to install Windows ARM NATIVELY to a Apple Silicon Mac, a la bootcamp? I think all that would be needed is a special bootloader to trick Windows ARM into thinking it is a Surface Pro or something. There was no competition before, so Qualcomm and Microsoft had no pressure to push Windows ARM or the Surface Pro, it just had to be good enough. Ironically, because the M1 is so fast, according to some reviews, Windows ARM runs faster as a VM on a M1 Mac than it does on a Surface Pro natively. I wonder if VMware has a skunk works project going on to do the same I'm sure VMWare is watching how the Parallels experiment goes and whether consumers take to it. Even still the, it's actually quite amazing that it can be done, that a 32/64-bit Intel Windows app can run under emulation on a ARM version of Windows built for Qualcomm's ARM chip, running as a Virtual Machine on a Apple Mac with a Apple designed ARM processor. ![]() Lingering application issues, emulation of Intel, problems running older 32-bit Intel apps (under emulation). It's a proof of concept, the bigger issue is, will running the ARM version Windows satisfy people who want to run Windows on a Apple Silicon Mac, because Windows ARM still has it's own issues even on official Windows hardware like the Surface Pro. ![]() I've tried it, it works, for the most part, still a lot of work to do, but interesting. So, Parallels is showing off a Technical Preview of Parallels that can run the ARM version of Windows on Apple Silicon apps. Support for NVMe 1.3 in the following guest operating systems: Microsoft Windows 11, Microsoft Windows Server 2022. VMware Hardware Version 21 - Support for up to 256 NVMe devices: 4 controllers and 64 devices per controller.Manage Power Operations of Encrypted Virtual Machines using VMREST API - You can now power on/off, suspend, pause, unpause, or retrieve the state of an encrypted virtual machine using the VMREST API service.You can export a virtual machine with vTPM device into an OVF file, and then use the OVF file to import the virtual machine with a vTPM. Import and Export Virtual Machines with vTPM device - You can now import or export a virtual machine with a vTPM device enabled using the OVF Tool.Download and Install Windows 11 guest operating system on an Apple Silicon Mac - You can now download and install Windows 11 as a guest operating system from the Fusion user interface on an Apple Silicon Mac.For more information on these vulnerabilities and their impact on VMware products, see VMSA-2023-0022. New Security Enhancement - This release introduces a new security enhancement by providing an improved encryption scheme (XTS instead of CBC) for maximum protection with a reduced performance overhead. ![]()
