Limitations for Windows 11 Arm-based PCs

In some situations, users with Arm-based computers may face issues with Windows 11 due to certain limitations. These limitations are mentioned in a blog post available on the Microsoft website.

• Drivers for hardware, games, and apps will only work if they are developed for Windows 11 Arm-based computers. Hence, if a driver does not work on an Arm-based PC, software or hardware that relies on that driver will also not work.
• The games that require DirectX 12 or OpenGL3.3 or greater will not work.
• Users may experience problems with the apps used to customize the Windows experience, such as cloud storage apps, input method editors, etc.
• Though Windows Security protects users’ systems from all types of threats, users still install different third-party antivirus software. If you have an Arm-based Windows 11 PC, some third-party antivirus can’t be installed.
• Windows Fax and Scan is not available on Arm-based PCs.

That’s it.
