    I'm running on an M1 MacBook Pro using the Parallels M1 preview and a Windows on ARM virtual OS. Every time I try to run the installer I end up receiving the "SU-PQR265" or "SU-PQE1223" error codes with the text "The necessary prerequisites have failed to install" I've contacted Epic Support and they've recommended following the steps provided in this article: https://www.epicgames.com/help/en-U...ry-prerequisites-have-failed-to-install-a3511. Namely, launch the app as Administrator, confirm the app have Read/Write access to the file its in, and Reinstall Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables. The first two I did with no luck, and the Redistributables I can't fully reinstall as there aren't ARM versions for most of them. They also recommended trying to add "-SkipBuildPatchPrereq" to the end of the Target line in Properties. After trying these I still end up with the same errors... Does anyone have experience using the Epic Games Launcher on Parallels on an M1 device?
