Currently, the only way to get the Windows 11 installation file on an ARM machine is through the Windows 11 Insider Program. However, Microsoft also says that it will be more strict in determining the platforms that Windows 11 ARM will support.

Parallels (virtual machine) emulator is a good choice for you to experience Windows 11 on your Mac computer. However, the only barrier is that the price of this application is not cheap, starting at 99 USD.

According to the schedule, Windows 11 will be released for models that meet hardware requirements on October 5 as well as sold to users with new installations. However, it may not be until early 2022 that Micorosoft will complete the free update for all users.
