UTM seems to be a much better and accessible alternative as a previous poster has suggested. I downloaded the free trial of Parallels, even with the help of VO OCR and sighted help, it was off of my system within 2 hours. I finally had some time to sit down and see if I could get this all up and running on my 2020 MacBook Air with 16 GB of ram.

People in this forum are very helpful and I think that one may help us in that so that we have a full guide with all the instructions needed I really hope for a definitive tutorial that puts an end to the hassle and confusion we are having for that application. The sound is synchronized between the two systems and there are no latency in the sound or the controls on windows. So I think I will be isolating windows from macOS but the overall experience is very good and the battery usage is low or negligible. The only two problems I’m facing or that I cannot use caps lock with any other key which I really need for using NVDA screen reader. The performance is great and the coherence mode between windows 11 and macOS is brilliant which makes it easier for screen readers and accessibility users.

I am enjoying the 14 day trial I’m really considering purchasing the whole app for the annual subscription as I’m a student and I need some programs the run only on windows. I also just started using parallels two days ago and i found a way around turning on the virtual machine but it is through a really a legit workaround.
