Kyvenza 3.0 runs Windows 11 ARM now (last month I told this sub it couldn't). $49 one-time

I'm the dev. I posted Kyvenza here about a month ago and said pretty confidently that it couldn't run Windows, because Apple's Virtualization framework won't boot Windows on ARM. That part is still true. I just stopped trying to do it with that framework.

Problem:

The thing people kept asking last time was basically "can I keep one Windows VM next to my Mac test VMs without paying for Parallels every year." So 3.0 has a second engine only for Windows: QEMU on Apple's Hypervisor framework, running as its own process. macOS and Linux guests still use Apple's framework like before. You bring your own Windows 11 ARM64 ISO from Microsoft and your own license, the wizard handles the rest. TPM and Secure Boot are on by default so the installer doesn't complain, and the virtio drivers ship inside the app.

After you run the included guest tools once you get a shared clipboard (you can paste files from the Mac too), a shared drive that shows up as Z:, and you can drag a file onto the window and it lands on the Windows desktop. No GPU acceleration, no audio, NAT only, and snapshots need the VM shut down. It's for running that one Windows tool, not for gaming.

The other new bit is a local MCP server, off by default. Claude Code or anything else that speaks MCP can start and stop VMs, snapshot and restore, run a shell command in a guest, take a screenshot. I mostly use it to let an agent mess around in a throwaway clone instead of on my actual Mac. The create/clone/delete tools stay hidden unless you switch them on. Every endpoint needs a token now, and that isn't just hygiene: QEMU's user networking lets a guest reach the host's localhost, so before 3.0 a running Windows VM could have talked to it. It was off by default and I never advertised it, but that's why there's no tokenless mode.

Comparison:

Parallels is still the better Windows product. 3D acceleration, dynamic resolution, and it's the one Microsoft lists as authorized. If Windows is the main reason you want a VM, get Parallels, or Fusion which is free now. UTM runs the same QEMU underneath, it's free and way more flexible, and it does x86 emulation which I don't. What you get here is one tested Windows config behind a wizard, and macOS, Linux and Windows guests in one app with one-click snapshot and clone. Someone last time said they'd just use VirtualBuddy, and for macOS-only guests honestly that's fair, it's free and it's good.

Pricing:

$49 once. Twelve months of updates, and the app keeps working after that on whatever version you have. Renewing is $19 and optional. 7 day trial on the direct download, no card.

QEMU is GPL, so the exact source, my patches and the build scripts for every release are at kyvenza.com/open-source.
