Windows 11 24H2 Installer goes into a boot loop on Intel Mac #6772

Describe the issue
Windows 11 24H2 Installer does not work on Intel Mac, while installer for w11-23H2 does work.

When starting the VM and booting from the ISO image (downloaded using CrystalFetch), the UTM logo appears and then it just restarts after about 10 seconds. Attached recording of this behavior.

Tried with latest-available (26100.2161) and earliest-available (26100.2) builds for w11-24H2.

Using latest-available build for w11-23H2 works without issue (i.e. utm logo appears and installation process continues).

This only happened on an Intel-based Mac. Could not reproduce on M3 Mac.

Configuration

  • UTM Version: 4.5.4
  • macOS Version: 15.0.1
  • Mac Chip: Intel
