The official version of the OS will start rolling out in less than a month, and developers are currently continuing to adjust the preview code for Windows Insiders through development and testing channels. So, if you had dreams of compatibility between the upcoming operating system and the M1 chip, they won’t become reality in the near future.

Microsoft’s new OS is incompatible with the M1 processor

One of the most popular virtualization tools available now, Parallels Desktop, recently launched version 17, which can be used to run the Windows 11 beta on Apple M1. However, suddenly, the development version started to have hardware compatibility errors when using the software. The good news is that this has been fixed in Parallels Desktop 17.0.1, but there is no guarantee that similar things will not happen again, especially considering Microsoft’s unsupported situation position. The Parallels team still hasn’t provided an explanation as to what it did to make the Windows 11 preview run on M1. Microsoft made another remark about running Windows 11 on Parallels’ M1 Mac, saying that this is not supported, and neither is running the operating system directly on the hardware. Most people think that the new operating system is still about to undergo other significant changes, for the better or worse. We’ll just have to wait and see what the future has in store for us and pray that the complete product that Microsoft will deliver won’t be such a disappointment. Were you planning to run Windows 11 on an Apple device? Tell us all about it in the comments section below.
