Intel oneAPI fail to install VS22 on Win11 & Parallels Studio on M4-series chip

[TiborKibedi1]

I try to install Intel oneAPI and Intel HPC toolkits on a Windows 11 (64-bit operating system, ARM-based processor) Virtual Machine, using Parallels Studio. The host is an Apple MacBook with M4 chip. The installation of Visual Studio 2022 Community edition was successful, however the installation of oneAPI base toolkit fails. The log file reports the following error:

--------------------------------------

Attempt 2 of 2 failed. Execution of C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\resources\app\ServiceHub\Services\Microsoft.VisualStudio.Setup.Service\VSIXInstaller.exe failed with exit code 2003, output:

----------------------------------------

 I am using the latest versions of Win11, VS2022 and oneAPI. The full logfile is attached.

Any insight or comment would be very useful.

This does not astonish me, as the Intel compiler wants to see an X86 (X64, really) processor, not ARM. Visual Studio does support ARM processors.

Thanks Steve the explanation. It is further restriction of code developments on different platforms.
