Ask HN: State of Running Windows VMs on Apple M1/M2 with Vagrant

[michalmatczuk]

Maybe I'm missing something but it seems that running Windows on modern Apple hardware with Vagrant is still an open problem.

The most active Vagrant Windows maintainer is Gusztáv Varga(gusztavvargadr)[1] I opened an issue in gusztavvargadr/packer [2] where I discuss my findings.

Maybe someone has better idea how to approach it.

Also, Microsoft archived their Vagrant provider [3] claiming they do not have resources to maintain it which is quite odd.
