![]() Interestingly enough, the Wikipedia page ( ) shows the "Latest" group of processors to be 7th generation through 11th generation. I rather think that MS decided to just draw a line in the sand and say that any processor more than five years old is unsupported. As you can see I have a quad core i5 and while Microsoft allows these they don't allow any in the 6000 range. There are a ton of Intel Core CPUs supported, just not the one I have and I'm wondering if Microsoft has decided they will not allow any Mac-used Intel Core CPU model. The notes say "To be specific, it helps to bypass TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, and minimum RAM requirements." The biggest problem I'll have is faking the CPU. I checked it out and this link is for a Windows 11 installation so I'll have to wait to try. The notes say " To be specific, it helps to bypass TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, and minimum RAM requirements." The biggest problem I'll have is faking the CPU. This is something that Parallels could fix in a future release. In Parallels 11.0, it was very difficult to move a VM from one computer to another if the virtual TPM was used. I don't see a way to transfer this license to Windows 11 ARM. While I was able to upgrade one of my VMs from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 11 Pro and retain the license. Microsoft still won't be able to match the performance of Rosetta which takes advantages of additional instructions on Apple Silicon. OpenCL GPGPU compute is not available either. While Direct X is well supported in Parallels, you won't be able to run software that uses Vulkan or OpenGL. Here are some of the issues you will run into (not had a chance to test Parallels 11.1 yet): Parallels does run Windows 11 x86 just fine on x86 Macs. It means that both Windows 11 ARM and Parallels are well designed. This is not something I recommend doing as a game console will run rings around it but the fact that it is possible to run an extremely resource demanding game on a completely different processor architecture than it was designed for is impressive. The most impressive thing I have seen it do is to run Grand Theft Auto V with good frame rates and only very minor graphics glitches. ![]() I have been testing Windows for ARM on the M1 Mac Mini using Parallels over the past year. I already submitted a service request (kind of, to their blog). It also says the PC must support Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 is not detected. ![]() I went through Microsoft's list of supported Intel Core CPUs and there's a ton of them. Ran Health Check and it says my CPU isn't supported. ![]() I'm running a late 2015 iMac so Parallels should be able to adjust things to get Windows 11 to work, especially with the TPM emulation. Did a quick check of all settings and nothing about TPM showed up. Guess I'll need to check with Parallels on who to do. I updated my Parallels software, it installed the updated Parallel's stuff and here's what I got when checking for OS updates. Has anyone tried emulating Secure Enclave? I just updated my Intel version of Parallels and will poke around to see if TPM has any settings. It’s just not compatible with the TPM used by AMD and Intel, and Apple will never open it up for third party use.īut this development shows that the TPM, as used by AMD and Intel, at least, can easily be worked around by software, so its value is questionable. Just to clear something up that some people might be thinking about, Apple has had a TPM for years, it’s called the Secure Enclave. "The latest version of Parallels Desktop also builds on our customers' top requests," she continued, "with new gaming and 3D integrations to further enhance the user experience." "Knowing that Parallels Desktop plays a critical role in enabling users to run the latest versions of Windows on their favorite Mac device today," said Parallels Vice President for Engineering, Elena Koryakina, "we've developed a simple solution to help all users upgrade to Windows 11 with the enablement of vTPMs by default on all Mac devices." However, Parallels says that it has created a virtual Trusted Platform Module (vTPM) to address the issue. ![]() Specifically, Microsoft announced that it requires a TPM 2.0, and not all Macs do. Microsoft's OS had certain minimum specifications, and key amongst those was the requirement for a Trusted Platform Module (TPM). Parallels Desktop previously became an Apple Silicon native app with version 17, but there remained issues over running Windows 11 on it. Parallels Desktop 17.1 supports vTPMs to allow Windows 11 to run on Macs ![]()
