PolicyPak ARM Support Supportability Statement
As of build 23.11, Netwrix PolicyPak generally the ARM family of processors when used alongside Windows 11 Home or Pro editions. This support includes the PolicyPak CSE, the PolicyPak MMC console, Licensing Tool, and all Extras tools (except for PolicyPak DesignStudio).
ARM support will generally ship 4 times per year, and lag somewhat behind normal builds. The latest ARM build will always be in the download so you'll never need to guess which one is latest. Note that there are a variety of ARM processors.
ARM processors are capable of running the following application types:
- ARM64 Applications
- ARM32 Applications
- X64 Applications via emulation
- X32 Applications via emulation
ARM processors emulate X64 and X32 applications via Emulation. ARM32 applications may or
may not be able to be run based upon the processor you are using. For instance, in this example, a
Surface Pro X can run c:\windows\SysArm32\Calc.exe, but a Mac M1 cannot run that same problem
(both examples are below).
When PolicyPak CSE is installed we will not install some components which don't apply when the processor is determined to be unable to run ARM32 applications.
