If you are asking can you run Windows on a M2 Mac, then the answer is potentially, yes. On Intel-based Macs you would do it with either Apple's Boot Camp or with a third-party solution, like Parallels. However, on M-series Macs, Boot Camp is not available. I understand that Parallels does not support running Windows VMs on M-series Macs, but I suggest you contact them to be sure.

Not for production at this writing.


The ARM-processor version of Windows currently available is for Registered Ddevelopers ONLY, and you must join the Microsoft Developer program to obtain a copy.


There is no equivalent of Boot Camp, which would provide the Drivers and helpers needed for simple 'Install and Go'.

There is a Parallels Virtual Machine option available, but that will take some work.
