Once you've installed Windows, it's possible to pay for and license Windows directly from Microsoft via the Windows Store app. There might be a brief period where you're technically unlicensed (not sure what the exact verbiage is in the current Windows EULA about trial/grace periods), but the end result is a properly-licensed Windows 11 install.

Last time I checked I could not purchase a license to activate Windows 11 ARM on Parallels on Mac.

It gave all sorts of not founds/errors in the store app.

This was a few months ago. Did it change or am I missing something?

Probably changed-- I had no issues buying a license back in March.
