#WINDOWS EMULATOR MAC OS X FULL VERSION#

I canвЂ™t tell you how cool that is there is so much emulation going on under the covers. ThatвЂ™s incredible when you consider that weвЂ™re on literally the cheapest Apple Silicon device you can buy вЂ“ one that gets thermally throttled and is missing a GPU core. The latest version of CrossOver emulates Windows Intel binaries on macOS through Rosetta 2 technology, which emulates x86 binaries on the new ARM Mac hardware. While Apple and Microsoft have confirmed that the new ARM-based Macs no longer support Windows (at least for now), CodeWeavers developers were able to run CrossOver 20 on Macs with M1 chip.

In other words, it allows users to install and run Windows software on other operating systems without even installing a full version of Windows as you do on a virtual machine. If youвЂ™re unfamiliar with CrossOver, itвЂ™s a platform based on the open-source Wine project that can run the Windows environment on macOS and Linux. However, CodeWeavers announced that CrossOver 20 now works on Apple Silicon Macs, which means that the new M1 Macs can run Windows software right on macOS. We already know that the new Macs with M1 chip can run both Intel and ARM apps made for macOS and iOS, but Mac users who rely on Windows for some specific software have lost Boot Camp support.
