Would love to see this too, as I'm about to bite the bullet and buy the latest Surface laptop. If I can run Orca on it without emulation it would be fantastic

I second that. Would be nice to see Orca Slicer support Windows on ARM now that Windows actually got a huge ARM push with a lot more users.

This is something I had considered looking into. Only problem is I don't have a computer to test on and I don't believe there is any way to emulate Windows on ARM via an x64 machine. Definitely something I am willing to look into more

Never mind! I didn't see @ElectricalBoy already had an implementation.

I don't believe there is any way to emulate Windows on ARM via an x64 machine.

The cheapest way that I am aware of to get a working Windows on ARM machine running is using a RPi.

I didn't see @ElectricalBoy already had an implementation.

What I have in #6173 is a simple port of prusa3d/PrusaSlicer#13116 and it definitely needs more work til completion (x64 compilation got broken atm)

Not stale as I'd still love to see this
