Windows 11 installation freezes

[stevofusek]

Hi, I have a problem with the installation of Windows 11 on the M1 Macbook Pro 16GB version. The installation freezes randomly and I can't even get into the desktop screen.
macOS ver.: 11.6
UTM ver.: 2.2.4
Windows ver.: 22454

Same thing here.

I went through all the steps but Microsoft is only making available Windows 11 now instead of windows 10 Developer's preview.

So, installation starts fine but freezes at some point and won't conclude.
I'm using Windows 11 build #22454.

If anyone has a work around, please share!
Thanks in advance...

Worked for me.

1. Install windows 10 for arm build 21390.
2. Activate beta builds through offlin insider enroll.
3. Install windows 11 build 22000.160 through windows update.

Is there perhaps a .utm profile which I can download with Windows 10/11 already installed for Apple Silicon? I have tried it multiple times already, also in the ways above but I consistently get an error (0x800701B1).

Tried to install windows 10 for arm build 21390. But there is this message when Windows installation starts: "A media driver your computer needs is missing, ecc."

Can UUD dump download .VHDX file? I just see that UTM using .VHDX file to create new VM but not .ISO file.
Here is the guide:

Moving this to Discussions since not UTM issue.

So what I ended up doing is using VMware Fusion Tech Preview to configure the .VHDX file and afterwards I imported it into the UTM virtual machine. I then installed the Spice Tools which enabled networking and varying screen resolution. It now runs relatively stable on my MacBook Air M1.
