I am an animator that recently bought a surface pro 11 with an ARM processor. Is there any update when Adobe animate will be available on it?

Hey Kristen, I had the Same issue cause i upgraded from a Surface Pro 8 to a Surface Pro 11. I have a solution that might work for you. What i did was Change the Adobe Installation Folder inside Adobe Creative Cloud on a x86_64 laptop and moved it to a USB, Then i installed Adobe Animate to that folder. afterwards i plugged the USB into my Surface Pro 11 and opened up the folder where Adobe Animate is installed on, and i double clicked the Animate.exe and it auto opened.

Animate 24 already runs natively on ARM processors at least on Mac. Is that not the case on Windows laptops?

It's not on Windows ARM processors. A few of the Adobe apps don't natively run on Windows ARM. I know they natively run on MAC ARM processors so I was asking if there's a date or timeline it can run on windows

right now it appears animate is near the end of the road. ie, there's still no animate 2025.

But is there confirmation it will be there eventually? (assuming late 2025-2026-ish?) Also thank you for replying, I appreciate it.
