On my son's M1 chip MBP, Rosetta allows him to run "Intel apps". I set it up and they run just fine: Microsoft Office before MS ported it to the M1 chip..


I think you need to be more descriptive and explanatory. Rosetta is an attempt to allow the M1 chip machines to "act like" an Intel machine. Is that not what you want?

If I may Quote in part " What intel program? Many "just work", using Rosetta, as P. Phillips pointed out.

But some do not - perhaps they are too old, or do some low level stuff that cannot be translated via Rosetta."


Reliable , accurate, details and context will really help to pinpoint a possible solution.


Without knowing exactly what Intel Application is involved - there is very little reliable, accurate or details we can offers a solution.
