There's no support for hardware acceleration on Apple Silicon hosts, which means you won't be doing much 3D accelerated gaming in Windows. It includes many of the features you'd see in paid apps like Parallels Desktop like file sharing between the two operating systems, different view modes, plus DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.3 support (on Intel models at least).Īpple Silicon support is there but still rudimentary. Like Workstation, VMware Fusion Player has a generous free offering including the ability to create large VMs with 32 virtual CPU cores and 128GB of RAM.
