ARM Processor Support Update for Windows ARM-Based Computers
At this time, support for Windows ARM-based computers is not available due to ongoing preparations for essential backend tools to support it, such as MECM and Cisco Endpoint Security. We expect that support for ARM-based devices will be available by the end of this year.
Please refer to your software application vendor’s website for details regarding their support for ARM processors. For more information about Microsoft support on Windows ARM-based PCs, please visit the official Microsoft Support FAQ.
