At this moment AdGuard for Windows is targeted on the x86/64 processors. At least because we maintain Windows 7 as well.
AdGuard installs just fine for Windows on ARM due to x86 emulation built into the OS. The problem is filtering cannot be turned on possibly due to some DLL or driver dependencies that cannot be emulated. A complete port of the program to ARM64 is not necessary, just the part that cannot run
The problem is that our network drivers aren't compiled for ARM and that's why nothing works.
In theory, this is possible to compile them for ARM, but we first need to get a test device.
I have the Surface Pro X. I can do some beta testing if there's an ARM version of the network drivers
@james856 that'd be extremely complicated this way, we need a device so that we could debug the program in the process..
The detailed plan is in the AG-16
@ameshkov you could install Parallels Desktop on a MacBook with an M1 processor (Apple Silicon) and run Windows on Arm in it.

@Jinik88 , yes indeed it's very important to add ARM support for our products and we are strictly looking forward, we definitely will do it. Nevertheless, unfortunately, I can't specify the particular date
@adbuker @Aydinv13 why didn't you mention anywhere in the version history that you added support for ARM?
@rakleed, yes, we'll definitely report about this feature in the nearest beta version. As for nightly - it was a technically misapprehension
