I wonder why Chrome doesn't ship one. They can demonstrably target that CPU, since they ship a mac/arm64 build, android builds, and of course ChromeOS for arm both 32 and 64. Perhaps the market share of Windows on arm is just negligible?


Yes that's probably the most likely factor. For a while, clang didn't have all the support necessary to build chrome on win-aarch64 but that's no longer the case. Chromium builds exist already so there's probably not much except a business commitment to build/test/support the platform. And yes maybe the share just isn't enough to justify that yet.


Do they license codecs for Windows or something?
