Guided Windows installation
Import a Windows 11 ARM64 ISO from Microsoft. WinDock prepares the virtual machine so you can continue through Windows Setup.
WinDock · Windows on your Mac
Run Windows 11 on your Apple Silicon Mac.
Set up a local Windows 11 ARM virtual machine, access Mac files from Windows, and keep everyday work moving.
7-day free trial · One-time lifetime purchase · No subscription
Requires macOS 14 or later and a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or later). Windows installation media and a Windows license are not included.
A local Windows workspace on your Mac
Windows and Mac, working together
Install Windows with a guided workflow, then use the everyday connections between your Mac and virtual machine.
Access Mac files
Work with the Mac folders you authorize from inside Windows. Manage your shared-folder selection in WinDock settings.
External-drive access
Access authorized external folders through Windows file sharing. Availability depends on your sharing permissions and whether the drive is connected.
Text clipboard sync
Copy text, links, and snippets between macOS and Windows.
Audio through your Mac
Hear audio from Windows apps and browser tabs through your Mac.
Local virtual machines
Your virtual-machine disks and shared files stay on your Mac. No cloud VM or separate virtualization app is required.
From Windows ISO to Windows desktop
Use Windows 11 for ARM64, not an Intel/x64 Windows ISO.

Download a Windows 11 ARM64 ISO from Microsoft, or select a compatible ISO you already have.
Prepare the VM
Choose your ISO in WinDock and follow the guided installation workflow.

Start with the work you actually need

Course software

Try for 7 days. Keep it with one purchase.
Start the free trial in WinDock or buy lifetime access directly. There is no subscription or automatic charge when the trial ends. After the trial, installing or running Windows requires lifetime access.
Download and update WinDock through the Mac App Store. The purchase price is shown in the app for your storefront; Windows licensing is separate.
Looking for open-source materials? Download the third-party source package. It is not a WinDock app installer.
The WinDock family
WinDock EXE — run compatible EXE apps directly.
WinDock EXE is a separate compatibility app with a built-in Wine engine, not a Windows virtual machine. Import compatible Intel/x64 EXE or MSI files without installing Windows. Windows ARM64 programs are not supported; compatibility varies by application.
WinDock and WinDock EXE are separate products and purchases. WinDock EXE is being prepared for App Store review; this page does not offer an app download.
