If your system shows ARM, it means it’s using the ARM64 version. The Windows Store can differentiate between ARM64 and x64 apps, ensuring compatibility with your device. ARM64 offers benefits like better battery life but may have some limitations with app compatibility. Thanks guys. Well answered.I'm running the apps on Windows 11 on Parallels on the M2 Mac, and it behaves flawlessly. Patrick Connor 1 Quote iPad Mini 6. 256GB. My GoTo design platform. M2 Mac Mini. 24GB.
