Actually, screw all that.

The latest PlatformIO core introcued a setting with which you can make PlatformIO think that your system is just a regular “windows_amd64” one. Which should work if everything can be emulated on ARM64.

See https://github.com/platformio/platformio-core/releases/tag/v6.1.16.

To use:

  • Use the CLI → pio upgrade and pio --version to make sure your core version is 6.1.16 (or above, in the future).
  • Add a new environment variable to your account with the name PLATFORMIO_SYSTEM_TYPE and a value of windows_amd64
  • Restart the computer for the environment variable to take effect
  • Compile and upload Arduino code as normal.

This should be much, much easier.
