We are waiting for Apple to renew its laptops with new MacBooks with M1 processors or those that finally include. New processors that Apple now uses with ARM architecture that we know they will not be compatible with Windows 11 officially.
Until now, anyone who wants to use Windows on Mac usually uses applications like Parallels Desktop. But using Windows 11 will be impossible, neither in a virtualized way nor with direct installations. Windows 11 will not be able to run directly and Microsoft has no plans to make it possible.
Windows 11 and Macs with M1s don’t make friends
On The Register They claim that a week ago they noticed a Windows 11 virtual machine with Parallels Desktop 17 running on a Mac with an M1 processor, had started to offer a hardware compatibility error. Parallels fixed the problem with the update 17.0.1, but everything seems to indicate that it is something provisional.
Remember that Windows 11 will arrive on october 5 officially and that until now you can download the development versions on the Dev Channel and Beta Channel within the Insider Program, even if you choose to download the corresponding ISO images.
Using Windows 11 on a Mac with an M1 processor was possible, but you have to continue instructions provided by Parallels Desktop and that they require us to download an ARM-based version of Windows with a VHDX extension, since there are no Windows 11 ARM ISO images.

It is one more step in the harsh limitations that Microsoft is imposing to use Windows 11 and that will remove quite a number of devices from the equation, including some of the More popular from the Surface range.
