Fusion

I'm having trouble with setting up my VM since all the iso I can find is incompatible to use on my Mac. The VM would reject it and pop up this message [1].

I also have tried UTM to see if it works and display this message [2].

I get the file from Microsoft website.

Hope you could help, thanks!

VMware Fusion is a Hypervisor, not an emulator, i.e. you can only run guest operating systems which are available for the physical system's CPU architecture (ARM in this case).

Adding on to what @a_p_ has said, you've downloaded the wrong architecture ISO for installation on an M-series (Apple Silicon) Mac.

You have to use Windows 11 ARM (not Windows 10) for these Macs. You can get the ISO for installation through either the "Get Windows from Microsoft" feature built into Fusion, or download Windows 11 ARM directly from Microsoft at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11ARM64

You might want to take a look at the Unofficial Fusion for Apple Silicon Companion Guide for helpful tips on running Windows with Fusion on M-series Macs.
