    Hello,
    From what I am seeing, installing Windows 11 on Parallels at this time requires to only use the Preview version of Windows 11. Is this true? Is there any way to use a "real" version of Windows 11 or are we currently stuck using preview versions?
    Unfortunately a previews version will not support my current use case.

    Ok, got it. This isn't actually that bad, especially for someone who is in IT. Not as fun for someone who is not.

    one question, do you know how to actually directly purchase a Windows 11 key? or do Windows 10 keys work?

    At least something positive here as I'm still getting updates despite leaving the insider program with my ARM version. This morning I got:
    2021-10 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 for arm64-based Systems (KB5006746)
    2021-10 Cumulative Update Preview for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8 for Windows 11 for ARM64 (KB5006363)

    Now running Windows 11 Build 22000.282 in the Release Channel
