    Hi. I am trying to install a small program, Winaero Tweaker, which I used to configure Windows in my main computer and I want to do it also in the Mac. However, the installer won't go aheaed as it detects it is not an x86 or x64 system. Is there any way to elude this check of the program installer? I have read a solution to install Visual C++ x86/x64, which it seems to had a similar issue, but I can't adapt it to this case.

    My install is: Windows 11 Pro 23H2 arm. Macbookair M1, Sonoma 14.6.1. Parallels 19.4.1

    Thank you

    You have a ARM system and not a Intel X86 or X64 processor architecture.
    Windows 11 support emulation of X86 and X64 apps only if there are support drivers for the ARM processor.
    In simple way windows 11 must support emulation on a M1 processor and here is the problem i think.

    The simple answer is that you will need ARM versions of the software you want to run. Intel architecture is not supported.
