AQEMU: a native QEMU front end for Windows 11 on x64 and ARM64. Feedback welcome

Hi all, I'm Philip, the developer of AQEMU. It's a point-and-click Qt front end for QEMU, and I've been building it for Windows 11.

  • It has native builds for both x64 and ARM64 (Snapdragon) PCs.
  • It bundles QEMU 11, so there's nothing extra to install.
  • It comes with 195 ready-made guest profiles across 29 architectures, from DOS and retro PCs to ARM, RISC-V and PowerPC.
  • It uses WHPX acceleration on x64, with TCG as the fallback everywhere else.
  • It's open source under GPL-2.0, and there's also a Linux build.

I'd really like feedback from Windows 11 users, especially anyone on Arm, on what works, what breaks and which guests you'd like added.
