Windows on Arm - ARM64 version

On an Arm device running Windows 10 (for example on a Surface Pro X), currently it is only possible to run insync with x86 32-bit binaries in emulated mode. If insync was compiled for arm64, it could run natively and be less resource intensive. Is this possible? Thanks.

There are no plans yet to build a 64-bit but this has been brought up by other users. I’ve raised this request to our product team :slight_smile:

Is see this thread is 2 years old. Will insync run on a surface pro 5g? I’m looking for a solution that will work. Emulation is ok. Google Drive and Dropbox won’t run on ARM at all.

Hi @zwattz! Apologies, this isn’t supported yet as it has not yet gotten much traffic as of late for us to support arm. In any case, I have included your post as a +1 to the feature request.

Given Microsoft’s move to push ARM, and the general way that it’s become a good experience now- I think this is likely to be a big area of growth. Google have dragged their feet a bit with Chrome on ARM but are now sorting it out, and firefox and edge are great running native.
The absence of a googledrive option means a wide open goal for insync if you can get this done.
Thanks
