Windows ARM64 native support
0 vote
Tech Support suggested I post this request here. Our IT org is starting to test Windows 11 ARM64 with the latest flight. It is truly amazing the amount of ARM64 native software out there now and how well it runs. This was actually the first application we ran into in our stack that isn't ARM64 native. I saw another support post related to the 32 bit version disappearing that mentioned ARM64 support was on the radar. Definitely looking forward to it.
It seems to run emulated in the short amount of testing we have done, but it is definitely sluggish in most UI elements, pop-up windows, etc.

Hi,
We are currently working on a native Windows 11 ARM64 port of Remote Desktop Manager, but it will still take some time before it is ready. While x64 emulation is definitely faster than x86 emulation, emulated .NET applications feel sluggish. Our original plan was to switch to .NET 6 to get ARM64 support, but Microsoft decided to backport the .NET Framework to ARM64 with .NET 4.8.1, so we will likely ship something faster. We still have a few dependencies that aren't portable to ARM64 that need to be replaced, so I don't have an estimate as to when it will be ready.
This being said, we take note of the demand for a native Windows ARM64 port. Until then, RDM remains functional through x64 emulation.
Best regards,
