Re:A preview of x64 emulation on Windows for ARM by mythz on Friday December 11, 2020 @05:33AM (#25384254)
MS have declared Windows 10 as the "last version of windows" [1] as it's essentially transitioning into a free serviced OS like macOS and ChromeOS which after the initial OEM license cost will be receiving free updates indefinitely.

MS have been monetizing it as an additional ad platform for its other products & services like One Drive/Office 365/Edge, etc. which I frequently see popup.

In that light it makes sense for them to support ARM/M1 and as a goal have as many installations of Windows as possible as Google does with their OS's.

For sure they will support ARM chips. They also see the performance comparison curves.
