For anybody planning to do this in the future, just keep in mind that you don't want the iso file, you want the vhdx file. Initial setup was relatively straight forward, once I downloaded windows 11 from Microsoft's website. I have installed UTM and am now, as I'm writing this, using it to play Eurofly. Thanks for everybody's recommendations, tips etc. Hope this helps! I would be curious to here others' experiences. If anyone knows if this actually exists in UTM, I would be curious. This is unlike VmWare where there is a specific key combination to start and stop sending keys to the virtual machine. I have found that if you hit a key such as command anytime you are in the Virtual Machine window, that key, will, get passed onto the VM itself. I'm not sure what others' experiences have been, but I've found that turning off VoiceOver while in the window helps tremendously, and using the Touch ID button to turn on and off VoiceOver rather than command F5 works much better. Not sure if mapping the insert key to right option would fix. It does work, however I do have issues where the key does get stuck and I have to press and release it a couple of times for it to release. Second, has anyone had issues where the Capslock key gets stuck? I have my NVDA key mapped to it. Speaking of NVDA, I was able to run everything specific to the screenreader with no loss of functionality from add-ons and voices I have. Once installed, things ran smoothly for the most part.

Has anyone noticed that when loading things from a shared directory, it takes a very long time for things to initialize? I loaded my portable of NVDA up and it took a good 5 minutes for things to run. You likely won't be doing much gaming on it, but for productivity it seems to be the winner. 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.
