Questions
Can I still use apps that aren’t native?
Usually, yes. Windows 11 on ARM translates x64 and x86 apps with Prism, so most of them run, just more slowly and with more battery drain. Apps that need kernel drivers or certain anti-cheat systems won’t run at all.
How do you decide an app isn’t native?
We check the publisher’s downloads and release notes, plus test results from Microsoft, Qualcomm and NVIDIA. Each listing shows when its status was last checked and where it came from.
