Minimize Safari, return to Parallels, and select “Find Automatically.” The program should now locate the VHDX file you downloaded.Select this link that takes you directly to the Windows 11 VHDX file and press “Windows Client ARM64 Insider Preview – Build 22453.” It’s a large file, so the download process could take a while.Press “Register now,” and choose “Flight now.”.Choose “Register” and mark the check box next to “I accept the terms of this agreement.”.Sign in to your Microsoft Account, press “About,” and select “The Windows Insider Program.”.Now it’s time to move on to the second section of the instructions.

#INSTALLING WINDOWS ON MAC M1 INSTALL#
If we were able to bypass this I am very confident that the rest of the install would proceed effortlessly and the software would run as expected. The error here is with the Graphisoft team's Visual C++ redistributable checker logic. The reason I say this is because if I manually install the Visual C++ redistributable pack from 2015 to 2022 for x86, 圆4 and ARM the install still fails in this exact spot, unable to verify that the Visual C++ redistributable installed correctly. I am going to assume that the team at Graphisoft have hard coded a specific file name or version that is not detected because of the ARM difference. There is unfortunately no log output stating why it fails. VSCRTCheck is then called again to verify that the file(s) were installed correctly and it fails. If they aren't it will install the ARM version of the 2019 redistributable alone.
#INSTALLING WINDOWS ON MAC M1 VERIFICATION#
Looking into the logs it is clear what is happening.Ī Graphisoft verification program named 64/VSCRTCheck.exe is run to check if the required Visual C++ redistributable files are present. The issue here is with the Archicad 25 installer. Microsoft has done an extremely good job of getting Rosetta (the 圆4 to ARM translator) working beautifully in Windows 11 ARM. There is no reason why Archicad shouldn't run on an M1 Mac with virtualization.

I thought I would weigh in on this issue as I had been trying to help a friend get their Windows version of Archicad 25 working on their new Mac M1 iMac running Parallels.

I am not as nice as some people in this conversation are, but the sooner you see what you need to do and decide, the sooner you will be doing what you should be doing: your projects For the same amount, get a monster gaming laptop, much uglier and less elegant than any Mac, and you can work. Your software combo does not work on the Mac.
#INSTALLING WINDOWS ON MAC M1 MAC OS#
the coming Mac OS Enscape was already mentioned, TwinMotion is also close by, but missing the hardware support, it is probably not there yet, and don't hold your breath for Lumion being native. Any mid to high spec Intel or AMD based gaming laptop with good multi GB RAM video system will be perfectly suited for your software combo.Ĭonversely, if you want to work on the Mac, then, with the exception of Archicad that is native, but not yet for the M1, the rest of the combo will also have to be Mac native. Your intended software combo is definitely not suited for Macs, especially not M1 Macs. you should decide what software you want/need to use, and then check the hardware/OS combo that works best. Is there a reason you are not simply running AC 25 under MacOS Monterey? I doubt seriously that Graphisoft will expend any resources trying to get a Windows version to run on ARM chips. We will be waiting for many months for a native M1 version of ARCHICAD for MacOS as it is. You could see if you can find an ARM version of that library/subsystem on a Microsoft site, install it manually, and then try to install ARCHICAD again just in case it recognizes the ARM version during installation. That said, the ARCHICAD installer, being written only for Intel, would be looking for the Intel version of VCRedist. The error message seems to indicate that the Visual C redistributable subsystem cannot be installed on ARM Windows.
#INSTALLING WINDOWS ON MAC M1 WINDOWS 10#
While Windows 10 or 11 for ARM (vs Intel) support a virtualization of some Intel apps and code - they cannot fully support any arbitrary Intel Windows program. As you know, on an Apple ARM processor (M1, M1 Pro, M1 Max etc) - Parallels cannot run an Intel version of Windows - only the ARM version (which Microsoft has stated it has no intent of offering as an OS to the general public for such purposes - limiting the usefulness of Parallels Desktop on M1 chips).

Hi actually surprised that you got as far as the error message that you show.
