Run Windows 11 Pro on your Mac for $9.97

TL;DR: Run Windows apps on your Mac with a lifetime Windows 11 Pro license, now $9.97 (reg. $199).

Some apps still have no Mac version, so running them means installing Windows. A Windows 11 Pro license from Microsoft usually costs close to $200, but through Nov. 1, a lifetime license is on sale for $9.97 (reg. $199). Install it in Parallels Desktop, and Windows runs next to macOS without a reboot.

Pro includes several tools that Windows 11 Home leaves out. Hyper-V runs virtual machines, Windows Sandbox lets you test apps in an isolated environment, and BitLocker encrypts the drive. Azure AD support lets you sign in to business networks. Snap layouts, DirectX 12 Ultimate for games, and Copilot in the taskbar are included as well, and Copilot answers questions and summarizes pages for you.

The license is for one machine and can’t be transferred. It works with Parallels Pro to run Windows apps, but it doesn’t include or upgrade Microsoft Office, so you’ll need a separate Office license. Check Windows 11’s system requirements before buying, including TPM 2.0. Your code arrives by email right after purchase and has to be redeemed within 30 days.

Run the Windows apps you need without buying a second computer.

Through Nov. 1 at 11:59 p.m. PT, you can get a Microsoft Windows 11 Pro lifetime license for $9.97 (reg. $199).
