Windows 11 on Arm

Any rumors on an early access version of Windows 11 on Arm? I know I am getting ahead of myself here...but curious minds want to know

 

I've been wondering about that too. A new Windows would certainly be a good opportunity to release an official ARM version. Microsoft improved Windows 10 on ARM a lot recently. I hope they'll announce something about ARM tomorrow.

 

Oops! Just realised that you were talking about an Insider Preview and not a general release.
I suppose there will be Windows 11 Insider builds fairly soon after the announcement. We didn't get any new Windows 10 releases to the Dev Channel in the last four weeks. My guess is that Win 10 will get further updates in the Beta Channel and the Dev Channel focus will be on Win 11. Or maybe the lack of Win 10 updates was just a result of MS being to busy to get Win 11 ready. We should find out fairly soon.

 

I agree with you. That is likely the path they'll take.

 

Currently the PC Health Check app claims that an M1 Mac is not able to run Windows 11. I assume that's something Parallels will be able to fix eventually.

 

First Win 11 Insider build will be released next week and we can install it even if we don't meet the minimum hardware requirements. https://blogs.windows.com/windows-i...ing-for-insider-preview-builds-of-windows-11/

 

And it looks like turning on TPM fixes the incompatibility message for many users. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...1/dd68cbd9-9e86-4d4d-8c9c-d019e1eac6af?page=1

I think Parallels will need to work harder on getting TPM support ready.

 

directX12 will also be required

 

@parallels - Any plans to support windows 11 via insider program on ARM..

 

Hi All, I'm getting the error in screenshot below. Any way of fixing this issue?

 

Can anybody launch PC Health App after today update?

 

No, it launches, tries to update and then closes again. Reinstalling it didn't help either.

 

I just ran it again right now, I don't know that I got any update though. Is this the version you are running?

 

I just redownload and reinstall this app, its version is still 2.1 (not 2.3 as yours). It seems that is cannot update itself on M1.

 

Ah - mine is an Intel MacBook Pro - the M1 must be the difference...

 

This is what I get on my Windows ARM VM. Not a yes, but not a no.

 

Did you change any compatibility settings to be able to get the 2.3. update?

 

I did not

 

I will say I never installed the original checker.
What about uninstalling the current version and downloading the 2.3 version?

 

I tried, but the installer still insists on installing 2.1 and then trying to update.
