Analytica for Windows on Arm (and Mac)?
Hello
Does someone have experience running Analytica on virtualized Windows on Arm (i.e., in Parallels) on an Apple Silicon (M-series) powered Mac? I don't like the idea of owning and working with two physical computers.
Thank you in advance

Hi Andreas,
Yes, our CEO actually used a parallel from a MAC for some time.Â
Analytica does not run on MacOS. But, it does run on a Macintosh, using Parallels or VMWare to run Windows. Many Mac users run Analytica for Windows under VMWare Fusion or Boot Camp Assistant. However, Boot Camp or VMWare Fusion, you will need a copy of the Windows Operating System.
Bootcamp comes free with the MacOS, and lets you boot up the Mac to run Windows. The difference with VMWare Fusion is that it lets you run the MacOS and Windows simultaneously.Â
Hope this helps!Â
I will ask around to see if there are other options not listed above.
Best,
Mitzu

I second what Mitzu said, but would also add that I have never heard of anyone running Analytica on an Arm processor. Not that anyone would tell me if they successfully did. This would be a good one for someone in our community who has tried it on Windows running on Arm to chime in -- anyone? Andreas -- if you have parallels running already, I invite you to install Analytica Free to see, you could probably answer this question in about 2 minutes (assuming you already have Parallels running), and then let us know what you find out here. Thanks!
