This new build of Windows 11 introduces a major upgrade to the Prism emulator that enables support for additional CPU extensions in its emulated x86 processor. These include AVX, AVX2, BMI, FMA, and F16C.

This is big news for ARM Windows laptops. Now according to Microsoft almost every app should be compatible, and they showed Adobe Premiere running fine through emulation.

      It is very weird how people are coming in to declare their preference on architecture for some reason.

        Not nowhere as weird as when I asked for a recommendation for something the other day. Poster replied to me nicely, I nicely said thank you, poster upvoted and a third person downvoted my thank you note! 🤣 🙈

          You’ll never know who did the voting. There are some odd people who will just downvote any comment. There are also people who makes bots to do the same. Every chance that some idiot didn’t like that you have an opinion, but it may not be that at all.

            True, could be different factors at play. Let’s see if this comment one will get downvoted. Previous one collected 2. 🤣

            Who knows, maybe it’s just me… 🕳 🛹 😆
