    Hardware: MacBook Pro M1 Pro 16GB RAM
    Software: MacOS Ventura 13.2
    Parallels software being run: Windows 11 for ARM
    Program being attempted to run: Age of Mythology Extended Edition (Found on Steam)

    Hello, I am writing to hopefully get some insight or help on some steps that I can take that I have not already done to troubleshoot this issue. I am hopeful that I can resolve this because of how perfectly the game runs prior to crashing.

    The game runs perfectly up until it crashes anywhere between 10 minutes to 25 minutes into any give game on both singleplayer and multiplayer.The game crashes right to desktop with no error code. Event viewer does not show any new application crash events even though I have been troubleshooting and testing the game for over a week and a half now. However there are two crash events showing from over a week ago, here are the events:

    Code:
    Faulting application name: aomx.exe, version: 0.1.2.4, time stamp: 0x5f0dde5a
    Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 10.0.22621.1105, time stamp: 0x04f0a07e
    Exception code: 0xc000041d

    However no new crash events in event viewer since then despite having several crashes a day since.
    Here are the troubleshooting steps I've taken thus far:
    1. Restarting windows
    2. Restarting MacOS and windows
    3. Uninstalling steam and the game, and re installing both
    4. Doing a clean re-boot to rule out background applications
    5. Updating windows
    6. verifying integrity of game files through steam
    7. Running a compatibility mode troubleshooter
    8. Running the game in compatibility mode
    9. Running the game in safe emulation mode in compatibility mode settings for windows on ARM
    10. Running the game with cache disabled
    11. Running the game with hybrid execution mode
    12. Running the game with "Additional lightweight emulation protections"
    13. Running the game with "strict self modifying code support"
    14. Uninstalling parallels and re-installing parallels
    15. Running the game as an administrator
    16. Running the game on a third party display
    17. Adjusting the core count and ram allocated to parallels, then running the game through each of those settings.
    I have parallels configured for games only.

    Thank you for reading this, and I appreciate any of your time dedicated to this. I have tried my best to provide all available information to hopefully save you the time of having to ask if I have tried x or tried y. If there is anything else I can try, please let me know. Even if you have insight as to why it might not be possible to fix this issue, I would appreciate that as well, thank you.

    I am writing this update as I was suggested by parallels to try disabling cloud synchronization on steam (Steam Settings > Cloud > uncheck "Enable Steam Cloud Synchronization for applications which support it") however it did not resolve the issue. My technical report ID is: 417685696

    Will update if I try anything new, and if any of it worked.
