What this means
Install choice
Genshin Impact runs through Prism. Use the current x64 or x86 build, then test heavy workflows such as sync, export, plug-ins and background services.
Read the Prism guide →Anti-cheat blocker
Genshin Impact is affected by anti-cheat support on Windows on Arm. The game client may be less important than whether the anti-cheat driver ships an Arm64 build.

Anti-cheat status
HoYoverse's mhyprot kernel anti-cheat has not been updated for Arm, so it blocks the game under Prism emulation.
