Here is the short solution for those looking to run Windows 11 on an M1 Apple machine.  Parallels.com.  It works, is easy, and has been reliable.  I do run Windows 11 on my Intel iMac using VMware's trial/test "product".  If I had to guess which will break first - it would be the VM Fusion. Parallels is in the business to stay, and with the knowledge and OK from Microsoft - just my opinion.
