P: Native Support for WOS/CoPilot/ARM Devices

I tried through VPN.. after using the clean tool thing. I set every location setting I could find to the USA... Didn't work.

I even tried creating a new account.. but can only pay by PayPal.. (the same as which I already have a subscription with) to which Adobe said; hey the location known for this payment account does not match.. so that didn't work either. Long story short, I think they determine location by payment mostly. 

I just tried this method, and it works perfectly if you have an x64 Windows 11 computer. I've found that it is possible to copy all system files over to your ARM64 setup and it works perfectly as intended.

I confirm the procedure to copy LrC folder from a Windows x86 to my Windows ARM works without issues so far. I'm able to import my old library and edit pictures and videos as well. 😉

When I talked to Adobe support, they told me that they where awaiting approval from Microsoft to release it, and that I should keep a lookout on this page

For updates. A few new applications have popped up all ready. 

I bought my new laptop today. I was pretty pleased when it arrived but that soon disappeared to be replaced by despair. I tried to upload and install Lightroom Classic, but I just got a message saying classic is not compatible. Any ideas when Adobe is going to get this sorted so I don't have to return the laptop and try and replace it? To be honest this is really annoying. Adobe and Microsoft are 2 of the biggest companies out there in their respective fields so I find it pretty hard to fathom how this is actually an issue.

Hello, I'm from Italy and I confirm that I cannot install LrC on my Surface Pro 11 with ARM through the CC application. I'll try to execute the work around installing on a x86 CPU laptop and than move the LrC folder on my Surface. 

I hope Adobe will allow to install it directly via CC application also ouside the USA, and better to develop a ARM native application in the next future! 

I tried using lightroom, but its not really a replacement for lightroom classic, to many missing features.

@JuniorJr: "My experience with LR, LRC and PS is "edit in Photoshop" doesn't work at all. No matter which version of LR/LRC nor PS (even PS beta).  If that's imporant.  Tried different versions, different installation order, remove pref. files, etc.  Just FYI."

Hmm, the command Edit In Adobe Photoshop works with my configuration of LR 13.4 (Intel), PS 25.9.1 (ARM) on Windows 11 (ARM), installed via the Creative Cloud app in the US.

I can confirm this works.  Am in Australia and just copied the intel LrC from my old surface go onto my new surface co-pilot and so far it seems to be working.  Have not tried anything fancy but at least can see my entire catalogue which is a step in the right direction.

I'm planning to buy the new Surface Pro 11, which is ARM-based. They didn't took long to release the ARM version for MacOs when they started using M-series processors. Functions like Denoise will likely work slow as h4ll since emulation won't use NPU, only CPU or GPU. Considering all this and the fact that service is already expensive and subscription based, are we getting a release date anytime soon?

Thank you!
