They already did that. Most legacy x86, x64 Windows software runs on the ARM version of Windows 11. Most or all of the OS is written for ARM, remember they basically had that done with Windows RT. What has been missing is good performance. The best Windows ARM devices available now are like low end Intel level devices that then lose more performance through compatibility layers. What's needed is both better CPUs/GPUs (+ drivers for games) and 3rd parties to write ARM software. Even Office has an ARM64 version already.
