    The latest Windows 11 for ARM update supports AVX instructions for x86_64 emulation.
    And it works under Parallels on a M1 MacBook - this really helps with a number of programs.
    Slightly annoying you have to go to properties/compatibility/emulation and check "Show newer emulated CPU features"

    Never mind - you meant the properties for the individual program file. Found it. wonder if this will solve the DirectX 12 issues with some of the games run under Battlenet?
