Emulator?

I need to run VMs like with Win10 guest as an example.

Windows for ARM64 runs just fine, and has its own x86 emulation layer.

There are scenarios where you genuinely need Intel hardware (running x86-64 binary drivers, I guess), but it's a pretty small subset.

Debugging x64 apps, malware reversimg and exploit dev are my main use cases. When I looked into it, windows or other OSes only worked on X86. Macos native emulation is useless. I would want to run idapro in windows10 and debug X64 apps.
