Parallels Desktop now lets you run Windows 11 on macOS Monterey
The success of Parallels Desktop software has its source in the design of the new computer models of the Cupertino company. Indeed, following the switch from Intel processors to M1 processors designed by Apple in person, the bootcamp option allowing Windows to be installed natively in dual boot with macOS has disappeared. M1 processors based on an ARM 64 system were simply not compatible with installing Windows.
Parallels Desktop has just announced its compatibility with computers running the latest macOS Monterey update which succeeds Big Sur. In its most recent version (17.1), the software allows the installation of the latest Microsoft OS, namely Windows 11, on any Mac M1 running Monterey.
The installation of Windows 11 normally requires the presence of a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) on the machine. This chip makes it possible to secure access to the internal storage of a computer by encryption. In other words, no data would be usable without the Windows 11 session password, even by disassembling the computer to access the disk. In order to allow the installation of Windows 11 on a virtual machine, Parallels Desktop has added a virtual TPM (vTPM) in its functionality.
