    Illustrator is now available as a native Windows ARM build in Beta — previously it was limited to some setups via x64 emulation through Windows on ARM's translation layer.

    Now it’s been compiled and is running directly on ARM64, no emulation.

    Key differences

    • ~30% performance gain vs. the emulated build
    • Lower CPU/battery footprint
    • A proper base for further ARM-specific optimizations

    Known limitations

    • Third-party plugins: Not currently supported. The team will share SDK availability details soon.
    • CC Libraries panel: Not supported in this build. The panel will not appear in the panel list.
    • AutoCAD (DWG) files: Real DWG format is not supported.
    • Version History panel (cloud documents): Panel does not refresh after saving. Workaround: close and reopen the document.
    • Encrypted PDFs: Not supported.
    • The "Use Precise Cursor" setting is not imported correctly when importing preferences.

    Please try to update from your CCD app and give it a go!

    I would like to install Illustrator Beta on my Copilot+ PC with a Snapdragon X 12-core X1E80100 (Elite) but still this does not work. The Illustrator-Beta app is not shown in the "Beta"-Apps section of Creative Cloud and when trying to install the Illustrator-Beta-App from the Adobe website, Creative Cloud reports the error that the app is not yet available for my PC. My Adobe ID is an english locale. What else is wrong here?
