I just installed Windows 11 recently on 2 macs, one was a 2012 pre retina i5 2.5GHz, the other was a brand new MacPro with M3 Pro. Here is some insight: Intel: you do not need bootcamp. I just installed an EFI version of Windows 11 from a key made with Rufus (turned of TPM), then used Brigadeer to get the Apple Bootcamp support package. The Bootcamp drivers do not support EFI, so weird stuff like sound doesn;t work, but if you install OpenCore Legacy Patcher and boot using it instead of the default Mac boot menu, you will end up with a working system, sound included. For the M3 Pro - I used VMWare Player. It now does exactly what Parallels does - you can install Windows 11 directly in the setup wizard for a new VM, and it also installs all of the basic support, so it doesn't need the additions to get networking etc. I guess the only thing Parallels has is allowing "confluence" mode, but I would rather use VMWare with a free personal license for the small amount of Windows I need to do rather than pay the Parallels cost every year. If I need more Windows and can't use VMWare because of licensing, I can also switch to UTM.

Instead of repeatedly pressing option key, you need to keep it pressed. Also the easier option is to use the boot camp assistant in windows tray and click on restart in macOS. This will directly set macOS your default boot OS.

so, when running Parallels on a Macbook, and then running Windows 11 on a Macbook, you are at the same time running two operating systems, on a Macbook, one Mac OS and a Windows 11 one? Don't these two OS' on the same Mac laptop interfere with each other, ie, slow down their operations? Would someone who needs to use Windows based applications, programs , be better off buying a Windows OS based laptop or computer?

Back in the day, I installed Windows on my bootcamp and VMWare offered to make a virtual machine from the bootcamp installation.

UTM is able to install and run Windows 11 now. I installed it and so far everything I’ve tried works well. It is ARM based Windows, whatever Microsoft calls their version of Rosetta is working well for me, for a couple of things I tried. I was able to share the Mac host machine drive as drive Z. It is using 5 or 6 cores from the host so it is quite speedy

You have to plugin the charger to get full performance on the Boot Camp machine, otherwise you will get a lower performance (to save battery). Also, you can access the Mac partition from Windows with some extra software install, so you don't need to restart the machine and use a USB drive to exchange files.

I upgraded my Intel MacBook Pro 13 with 8th i7 core processor Bootcamp Windows 10 to 11 and was also able to install WSL2 GUI and Windows Subsystem for Android. I had to jump through some hoops to do the initial upgrade to Windows 11, but thereafter I used group policy to force the 21H2, 22H2 updates. In the end, I got rid of my Intel MacBook Pro, because performance of Intel Bootcamp Windows 11 was so slow compared with running Windows 11 as a VM under Parallels on my M2 MacBook Pro 13! The same group policy approach, as documented on Parallel's support site, also works to force the 23H2 update if not offered via Windows update.

I've been using bootcamp windows 11 for two years now and have had no issues. While not officially supported, it works just as well as win10. You can even do a hacky workaround and boot it off an external drive. This worked, but the speed was not great. The best thing I ever did for my 2019 minimum spec macbook was install windows 11 on the internal drive (128GB) and Monterey on an external USB3.2 NVMe enclosure (500GB)

You could also install only Windows on an Intel Mac. You will need to use brigadier to install the Mac drivers on windows though after installing the OS. And if you by pass the requirement for TPM when creating Windows 11 bootable using rufus, you could get the Windows 11 installed as well - as a clean install - without macOS

To switch between mac and window on Intel using Bootcamp, I use the Bootcamp assistant on Windows to select the start up drive. Also, on mac, I think holding down the keys (e.g. the option key) works better than spamming them. You can hold down the keys before pressing the power button from my experience. One other thing you can do with Parallels is boot your Bootcamp drive into macOS. So if you don't need the full hardware, you can run your Bootcamp installation side by side with macOS, but when you do, you can switch over and boot the full Bootcamp install. Thanks for sharing, hopefully I can upgrade my 2019 16" one of these days :)

Might have been a bit more enlightening to compare Parallels for Intel and Parallels for Apple Silicon. Parallels on Intel has all the same advantages of virtualization like snapshots and cloning, without most of the downsides since it runs x86-64 Windows.

If the purpose of the intel mac is windows x64 software testing I'd rather wipe the SSD and install windows 11 directly via UEFI. You can then extract the win 10 drivers from the latest boot camp installer (7zip or winrar can do so) and speaking of expirience they're gonna do fine on 11.

Hi, the boot camp on my MacBook Pro M1 isn't working. How can I activate it to install Windows 10? I will try Paralles Desktop

I have a lot of experience using virtual machines and Boot Camp as well as Parallels. As I have mentioned in previous videos, I am a developer and I can tell you that I have used Parallels on a MacBook Pro 16" with the M1 Pro chip and it works perfectly. HOWEVER, as you rightly said in your video, you need to have ARM compatibility, otherwise the programs will not work at all. Unfortunately, compatibility with Apple silicon is quite limited for programs used in Windows. The idea of using a virtual machine with Windows is the COMPATIBILITY THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE WITH MACOS. Unlike using Boot Camp, which in my personal opinion has 100% compatibility because it uses Intel processors. Perhaps it is a headache to restart and boot the operating system, but it is something that has greater compatibility when using programs, for example, BIZAGI, which is a Process Modeler and BPM Suite.

If I were a business student wanting to switch to electrical engineering do you think that parallels would be ok on my 16 inch m2 pro? I hope that it could run things such as CAD as I heard it doesn’t work natively.

@AZisk .. Regarding Windows 11 on Parallels, have you noticed that windows service (Plug and Play) is missing? I tried a clean install for Windows 11 on Parallels and it is missing. I don't know why, but that is causing some issues for me.
@AZisk 4 ай бұрын
I haven’t noticed that specific service missing, but I know when I plug something in (like usb, camera, mic) they just work. Perhaps Parallels is abstracting that service.

@@AZisk First, thanks for the reply, much appreciated ☺. Second, true when any accessory is plugged, it works immediately. But in my case, it seems that I need that service to be shown explicitly. To be more clear, I was trying to imtegrate with cloud HSM, so I need to install the proper software on Windows, which installs Windows services. Unfortunately these services didn't start, as the main service requires Plug and Play to be running. I double checked using "SC.EXE QC " command and Plug and Play was listed as a dependency. Weirdly enough, that specific service isn't listed anywhere on Windows 11 ARM. I really don't know if it is related to Windows 11 ARM or Parallels. The service is available in normal Windows 11 laptop. It is very weird and niche situation I am facing. I just wanted to share my experience with you, hoping you might have faced it before or even have a solution to it 😁. Sorry for the long comment and really appreciate your response as well as your awesome content 🤗

@@AZisk Thanks for your repsonse, much appreciated. That is correct, whenever there is an accessory plugged, it works properly. But that service isn't listed explicity and in my case, I was trying to test HSM integration and the service for the HSM need the Plug and Play service to be runnnig and it is actually missing. I checked normaly Windows 11 laptop and the service is there, it is only missing on Windows 11 ARM on Parallets. Pretty weird and I haven't found any workaround for that.

I have used Windows on Macs now for years. Bootcamp and Virtualized. On my M1 Max MBP the parallels arm version is the methodology of choice now for me. While it is counterintuitive the VM version in Parallele is just snappy enough, adding in all the other niceties like integration with the Apple FS. The "BOTH AT ONCE" nature of the virtualized environment makes for a more pleasant development experience. As you noted the availability of ARM variations of some software might be a showstopper for folks. With the end of the horrific ARM exclusivity agreement with Qualcomm maybe now Windows on ARM will get its just due, and the availability of ARM versions of those things will start to appear. Apple may proport their designs and 'Innovations" as industry leading and blazing trails, but with their ARM transition they definitely hit it out of the park. Windows on ARM is playing catchup for sure, but with the likes of Parallels we can have our cake and eat it too.

The Intel has a disadvantage because Intel has its Low Power mode hardwired and by default, meaning that without the power connected, you loose performance. Try connecting it to power and see. The Apple Silicon one will not be affected by this unless the low power mode is enabled. It will still be faster but the difference will be less noticeable
