A test version of Parallels Desktop 16 for Mac on Apple M1 chip released

A test version of Parallels Desktop 16 for Mac on Apple M1 chip released

Parallels have released an update to its virtual machine that adds support for Apple M1-based computers. However, the update is only available to test participants.

It is also noted that the virtual machine is only compatible with operating systems made for the ARM platform. Systems for Intel x86 cannot be virtualized by the program yet. To run Windows, you can download a special version of the OS for ARM, which is available to Windows Insider members. But unfortunately, there is no publicly available Windows 10 for ARM that could be purchased.

As Macrumors forum users note in the comments, the ARM version of Windows 10 Insider Preview, launched through a virtual machine, works fine.

hose who want to test Parallels Desktop 16 for Mac computers on the M1 processor now can register for the testing program on the developer’s official website. However, it is worth considering the following features of this version of the virtual machine: 

  • Unable to start the operating system for Intel x86;
  • Unable to pause and resume a virtual machine, including returning to a restore point;
  • You cannot use the Close button while the virtual machine is running; instead, you must shut down the operating system inside the emulation environment;
  • ARM 32-bit apps will not run in a virtual machine.

Parallels Desktop 16 was released in August for Intel-based Mac computers. However, now the company is introducing support including the Apple Silicon platform. The first news of this update came in November following the release of Apple’s first ARM-based Macs.
