And, to be clear, the problem is that it will not download. So far, the only app I cannot get to work in this Windows 11 environment is Norton. I have followed those instructions and so far everything works, including newer apps like Microsoft 365 and some very old legacy apps dating back 10 years.

Parallels provides instructions on how to load and run Windows 11 on Parallels 17 on an M1 Mac.

Windows 10 will not install on Parallels 17, only Windows 11 will. That is when I received the error message that it would not download because it was not compatible with the operating system (Windows 11 I assume).įrom what little I have learned, in order to run Windows on an M1 Mac, I need to run Parallels 17 (which has been designed to run on the M1 chip). After that install, I went to my Norton account web page from a browser running in the virtual machine (Parallels 17 and Windows 11) and attempted to download the latest version of Norton from there. When I upgraded to my new Mac (M1), I found that I had to install Windows 11 with Parallels as I noted in a previous comment. Even if the hardware is fast, the poorly optimised software/emulation will weigh down on performance.I don't remember what version of Norton I was running in Parallels on my previous Mac. That is why I feel that ARM chips on Windows will take a long time to become attractive even with Qualcomm doubling down on making a good SOC to compete with Intel on Windows. But when you start using Windows which is very fragmented, I feel you will lose a lot of performance due to inefficiency/ poor optimisation. The fast SOC aside, the other factor that makes the M1 based systems fast is because of the tight software integration with the hardware. Only time I struggle is when I use it for work running a virtualised Windows system on it and I can't get some of the usual Windows/ Microsoft Office shortcut keys to work on the Mac keyboard. And after giving the MacBook Air M1 a try, I rarely miss my tablet or Windows computer. I've not used a Mac for 15 years now since the last MacBook Pro I purchased. There is no point getting a Mac to run Windows primarily.

I would love to see a full review down the road that caters to hardcore PC users.I feel if you go for a Mac, and I feel you should give it a try, running Windows should be secondary. This enables our users to enjoy the best Windows-on-Mac experience available."ĬerianK said:I have not used a Mac for 30 years, but this announcement, combined with the M1's power/performance, seems to remove a major obstacle that had driven me away from Macs.

However, virtual machines are an exception and thus Parallels engineers implemented native virtualization support for the Mac with M1 chip.

"Apple's M1 chip is a significant breakthrough for Mac users," said Nick Dobrovolskiy, Parallels Senior Vice President of Engineering and Support. "The transition has been smooth for most Mac applications, thanks to Rosetta technology. Apple M1's integrated GPU appears to be 60% faster than AMD's Radeon Pro 555X discrete graphics processor in DirectX 11 applications when running Windows using the Parallels Desktop 16.5.An Apple M1 machine running Parallels Desktop 16.5 and Windows 10 Arm performs 30% better in Geekbench 5 than a MacBookPro with Intel Core i9-8950HK in the same conditions.
