Apple's Boot Camp allows Mac users to run Windows on their devices, but it looks like Boot Camp's days are numbered.
According to new developer documentation released by Apple, the switch to Apple Silicon will prevent users from running Windows on their Macs via traditional Boot Camp.
Apple has confirmed plans to move away from x86 processors and that they will be using ARM SoCs for future Macs.
Apple has also announced that Rosetta 2 will be compiled into code for Intel CPUs to enable existing applications to run on Apple Silicon.
Apple was also unable to translate the code for Boot Camp for some reason, which could prevent users from installing Windows 10 on their Macs.
Apple's support documentation states that Rosetta is unable to translate x86_64 virtualization applications, which may also prevent the virtualization of Windows environments.
It should be noted that this issue only applies to Macs with Apple Silicon versions. Boot Camp will still be supported when installing the OS on Intel-chipped Macs.
Apple also showed off Linux running on ARM Macs during WWDC 2020, but This is because Linux for ARM is already available. Although Windows 10 can also run on ARM chips, Microsoft says that there is no official way to provide.
As a result, users cannot use Windows 10 on ARM Macs unless Microsoft releases an installation image of the OS.
