“Microsoft only licenses Windows 10 on ARM to OEMs,” says a Microsoft spokesperson in a statement to The Verge. For example, this article on the Verge contained a quote from Microsoft: But Microsoft made statements via spokespeople saying this wasn’t supported. Technically, there was nothing that prevented you from using any Windows 11 key to do this, as Windows product keys are not architecture-specific, so you can use the same key with x86 (RIP), 圆4, and ARM64 OSes.
You need a Windows 11 ARM64 product key. But they did make a Windows Insider ARM64 virtual hard disk image available for download, and that will work with Hyper-V (if you’ve got a Windows 11 ARM64 machine running Hyper-V) as well as with Parallels or VMware, so that’s a reasonable workaround. There are no ISOs or WIM files available for this, as Microsoft hasn’t ever made these available. Both work reasonably well, but there was one challenge: At that point, Microsoft wouldn’t sell you a version of Windows 11 to run on it. In a previous blog post, I talked about two products that enabled running the ARM64 version of Windows 11 on M1-based Macs, Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion.
