Use Windows on Mac with M1? Apple warns that it depends on Microsoft

Despite being focused and developed for macOS, many users choose to use Windows on Mac. They take advantage of all the hardware present and thus obtain excellent machines with above average performance.

With the change revealed by Apple, with its new M1 SoC, it was unclear whether Windows would continue to be supported. The answer now has come from Apple itself. Microsoft’s system will work on these new systems, but only if Microsoft so desires.

Windows running on Mac with M1?
The architectural change that Apple has undertaken with the new MAc with the M1 SoC has brought some challenges for software developers.  All apps must be adapted to work on SoC M1 and therefore be ready to be used on this new platform.
Something many have gotten used to has been using Boot Camp to have Windows present and then running apps on this system.  With this missing from the new platform, it wasn't clear what the future of Windows would look like on these machines.

It depends on Microsoft and the system for ARM
Confirmation and even some information came from Craig Federighi himself, who stated that the M1 can be used to run Windows.  This is because Microsoft already has a version of its system ready to run on ARM processors.
The problem, from what has been described, comes from Microsoft itself.  The company allows the execution of its version only on machines on which it is already pre-installed, which does not happen with Macs. Therefore, only with the modification of this policy will it be possible to have Windows on new Apple machines.



There is already an alternative to Apple
Despite this scenario, new Mac users can have a workaround in an easy way.  The CrossOver app has already ensured compatibility with the new SoC and can easily emulate Windows apps.  So even without Microsoft's support, Windows is there.
Everything now appears to be in the hands of Microsoft, which may or may not change the license of its ARM version of Windows.  Naturally compatible, it will be easy to install and use this system on new Apple hardware.
