Parallels has native support for Windows 11 on M-series chips.

Some games like Crusader Kings 3 are even faster in Windows 11 on Parallels than on native macOS.

Wait, so what are we talking about here? Support for older windows through the Rosetta translation layer through parallels? Or is this talking about only older windows (I.e. windows 10) through the arm-specific windows versions?

Windows 11 ARM can be run on M1 through parallels. Windows 11 ARM can run x64/x86 (either?) software. So there’s a path. Performance of the translation layer is not great though.

ARM64 Windows with Windows own built in x86/x64 compatibility layer.

It actually runs very well, even on my base model M1 Mac Mini.

Our root issue is Microsoft SQL Server refusing to install on Windows 11 ARM. If it did, we'd happily move to Windows 11.
