# ARM32 Support Removed Notice
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For deliberated consideration, This project will remove the ARM32 support on
|
||
|
|
the Windows platform. Here are the reasons:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The latest version of ARM32 version for Windows desktop is Redstone 2 Insider
|
||
|
|
Build 15035. I know Windows RT 8.1 and Windows 10 IoT Core aren't in the
|
||
|
|
stage of end of support, but most of daily users are drop their devices
|
||
|
|
(Windows RT 8.x tablets) or have a better solution (Windows 10 IoT Core users
|
||
|
|
on Raspberry Pi devices should migrate to Linux or ARM64 version for Windows
|
||
|
|
10 desktop).
|
||
|
|
- Future ARM processors are deprecating ARM32 ISA support, and Apple Silicon M1
|
||
|
|
had dropped the ARM32 support at all. So we can't run ARM32 version of Windows
|
||
|
|
desktop applications on these devices. According to
|
||
|
|
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/arm/arm32-to-arm64, we will know
|
||
|
|
Microsoft will remove the support for 32-bit ARM versions of applications in
|
||
|
|
a future release of Windows 11.
|
||
|
|
- Reduce the size of release package and make the continuous integration faster.
