    Windows 11 Bare Metal Install Freezing

    Activation when booting virtual *AND* bare metal

    So I've got an old school Mac Pro with a Boot Camp partition. I recently installed virtualization software called Parallels that is capable of booting the physical Windows disk inside a VM. From a functional perspective, it works great even allowing full DirectX 11 support. But the problem I'm running into is with activation.

    Windows 10 Home is perfectly happy when booted from bare metal. But if I try to boot it up in a VM, activation freaks out and starts bleating. If I go back to bare metal, it's happy as a clam again.

    I can't be the first person to deal with this. Is there an official Microsoft solution to this dilemma? Technically I *am* running Windows on the same motherboard, CPU, etc., so there shouldn't be a license violation.
