Compatible with ARM processor?

I've just purchased a new computer with windows 11 ARM. I've heard that quicken won't work with it. Is that true? I haven't received the computer yet and I'm wondering if I made a mistake. I currently have a Microsoft Surface Pro (windows 10) and because I've had good luck with it, I went with the Surface Pro again as they will stop updates to windows 10 in October and mine is too old to update. The laptop I have ordered is the Microsoft Surface Pro 2-in-1 Laptop/Tablet (2024), Windows 11 Copilot+ PC, 13" Touchscreen OLED Display, Snapdragon X Elite (12 Core), 16GB RAM, 1TB Storage, Sapphire. Any insight about this would be appreciated. It's been 10 years since I last purchased a computer and everything has changed so much that none of specs are familiar. Should I cancel the order and look for something else?

    I have been using a Surface Pro 11 with the Snapdragon CPU, for Quicken Classic for several months. No problems at all, Quicken runs cleanly on it every time. My machine is very similar to what you've ordered, except it doesn't have the OLED display.

    Whoever told you it wouldn't run was completely misinformed.

    @TheBajan I have a Surface Laptop 7 with a Snapdragon X 12-core processor on a 64-bit operating system, ARM-based processor and it works fantastically with Quicken. I have had no issues whatsoever and I have been using it with Quicken for almost a year.
