Installing Rockwell Software on Windows 11 ARM

[ASF]

Yes, that's the biggest problem I have. Windows ARM can simulate x86/x64 software, but not x86/x64 drivers. If you have a USB device that requires drivers, and the manufacturer hasn't released ARM-specific drivers for it, you're out of luck.

Luckily these days the majority of equipment is programmable with ethernet, which requires no drivers.

Yeah that was my fear. Most of the time it's easier to use USB since we have monitoring systems that can shut down everything if certain actions are taken over the network. Downloading is a specific point of issue so we were looking for a way to download to processors via USB using the new ARM processors. Hopefully Rockwell will release a compatible driver soon.
