Will Microsoft shut down Apple Silicon M1 virtualization?

I'm reading in several places that it is unlikely that Microsoft will fully support M1 virtualization. Does anyone, particularly Parallels, know if this is the case or not? I'm running an insider preview of Windows 10 on an M1 Air. I need to run a single program that I use all day - Articulate Storyline - and the rest I do in the Mac OS. I plan on buying a 16" M1 X when they are out so I can get 32 or 64gb RAM and the obvious speed bump. But if Microsoft pulls the plug on Apple Silicon I would not be able to use that machine professionally. In that case, an Intel 16" would make more sense for me.

@MarkN8 My Windows 11 ARM didn't get any .NET framework update yesterday or today. Just another defender antivirus one. Now I'm worried on my M1 ARM with the 22000.194 version running on Parallels 17.0.1 that was disenrolled in the Insider Preview Program (i.e. no longer in Beta or Dev channels). Is there a KB for this you can provide?

The KB reads as KB5004342. Perhaps you already have this one? My Windows 11 ARM setup is pretty much the same as yours.

It says mine had that installed back on July 23rd. LOL. So I guess we are good. The updates after that are all cumulative updates that were issued that eventually brought me up to 22000.194 for ARM.
