Hi I'm new to VMs, and recently I installed Parallels on my mac M1.
I installed the Windows 11 ARM64 Insider Preview (Dev Channel) version, but it's so laggy, and I'm just running Edge or going through windows settings.
When I chose the Windows version there was another version available for download (Beta Channel), check image below. Now I'm wondering if that version is more fluid and better overall, so what I want to do is uninstall the current version I have and then install the other one.

I'm struggling a little bit as I don't know how to uninstall an OS inside os Parallels

Hello, unlike the Dev channel, the Beta channel is tied to a specific feature update. While the Dev channel is supposed to be in a perpetual state of prerelease, at some point, those builds split off into a release branch, and that's what ends up in the Beta channel. For removing your current VM please refer to this Kb article. Then follow the steps from this Kb article for installing Windows 11 beta version.

So is the Beta channel better than the Dev channel for general use? Thank you
