Run Windows 11 on Raspberry Pi 5 with Botspot Virtual Machine ["don’t expect to be playing triple A games here. Older games (like 10-15 years ago) and web games should work ok."]

    Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

    Seems like a pointless exercise.

    If anything, it would be more interesting to run a full x86 emulator to install Windows 98 / Windows XP to run older games. There are games that work better on native Windows 98 than via compatibility mode on W10.

    Win 11 is going to eat up so, so many resources on a low-power device like a Pi.

    Windows 11 deserves to die in a dumpster fire.

    Wouldnt it be just better to run wine with a translation layer? Windows vm will just eat half of the resources

    Mini PCs with a n100 or used office PCs are probably not that much more expensive and a much better alternative, if your goal is to run windows on them and you don’t already have the Raspberry Pi lying around.
