There is a newer Intel-based MacBook Air with Ice Lake processors, but that's not what's being used here. However, it's actually compared an Apple M1 MacBook Air with 16GB of RAM to a model powered by an Intel Core i5-8210Y and 8GB of RAM, which was actually released in July 2019. First, it promises to be 250% more power-efficient on an Apple M1 Mac compared to a 2020 Intel-based MacBook Air. Parallels is making some big claims about the performance and power efficiency improvements, but you have to read the fine print to put things in the correct perspective. This enables our users to enjoy the best Windows-on-Mac experience available.” However, virtual machines are an exception and thus Parallels engineers implemented native virtualization support for the Mac with M1 chip. The transition has been smooth for most Mac applications, thanks to Rosetta technology. "Apple's M1 chip is a significant breakthrough for Mac users (.). In fact, that's why Parallels prioritized adding native support for the M1 chip, as Nick Dobrovolskiy, Senior Vice President of Engineering and Support, says: The benefits of native support should be especially evident in Parallels Desktop, since virtualization software tends to use a significant amount of hardware resources. Ever since Apple announced its first Macs powered by in-house ARM processors, more and more companies have had to update their apps to run natively on they new silicon, since Intel-based apps have to be emulated, this resulting in some performance overhead. iso of the build I wanted.Parallels has announced that version 16.5 of its virtualization software, Parallels Desktop for Mac, is now generally available, bringing with it native support for Apple's new M1 chipset. As far as I can tell there is no official way to get it anymore, which is kind of ridiculous given that the download page is still labelled for Windows 10 and that the actual name of the file says "Windows 10". Am I missing something or is there just no way to get Windows 10 to work on my M1 Mac? Is it because I'm using the free trial, or the app store version of Parallels? If anyone has any answers I'd appreciate it.ĮDIT: For any future dudes reading this, I cannot find a download for Windows 10 for ARM from Microsoft. Windows 11 isn't an option because AFAIK the program I'm trying to run isn't supported yet.
I installed Parallels Desktop from the app store, and when I get to the screen that prompts me to give it a VHDX file, the link it sends me to download the image takes me to a download for Windows 11 (despite the filename from Windows Insider being labelled as Windows 10).
I'm trying to get Windows 10 to work on my M1 Macbook Air. Hoping someone here can help me with this because r/parallels is essentially dead.
