Adobe releases Windows on Arm versions of Premiere Pro and After Effects
The native ARM64 version of Premiere Pro won't currently include support for third-party extensions, raw video files like ProRes, or the hardware-accelerated playback and export of H.264 and HEVC in MP4. Those are some big missing features that Adobe is looking to make available in a future release, but the company won't deliver the Loudness Radar effect, export to Wraptor DCP, import & export of GoPro CineForm content, or the export to the P2 Movie format in beta or final versions of Premiere Pro for Windows on Arm.
There are some known issues with Adobe After Effects for Windows on Arm, too. It also lacks ProRes support, alongside the inability to import or export ARRIRAW, SWF, GoPro CinePro, JPEG20000 in MXF, and WMV. Currently, you can't import MotionJPEG and MKV in the beta version of After Effects, and there's also no hardware-accelerated playback and export of H.264 and HEVC in MP4. Adobe notes that third-party plug-ins for After Effects will have to be updated for this Windows on Arm version, so there's no support for these just yet.
There are similar features missing from the native Windows on Arm version of Audition and Media Encoder, which are both also available in beta this week.
Adobe first released an Arm beta version of Photoshop for Windows in late 2020, but the company has taken far longer to get Premiere Pro and After Effects recompiled natively for ARM64. Owners of Qualcomm-powered Copilot Plus PCs have had to use the emulated version of Premiere Pro over the past year, which didn't have enough performance for more demanding video editing tasks.

Lina Khan points to Figma IPO as vindication of M&A scrutiny
A surprising figure is celebrating Figma's successful IPO: Lina Khan, former chair of the Federal Trade Commission. In a Friday afternoon post on X, Khan linked to an article about Figma's impressive first day of trading and argued the IPO is 'a great reminder that letting startups grow into independently successful businesses, rather than be bought up by existing giants, can generate enormous value.' Khan was alluding to a $20 billion deal for Adobe to acquire Figma that fell through back in 2023. While Adobe cited the lack of a 'clear path' to approval from the European Commission and the U.K. Competition and Markets Authority, the acquisition also faced regulatory scrutiny in the United States over concerns that it could prevent Figma from being an 'effective competitor' to Adobe. Khan was FTC chair at the time, leading the agency to challenge Big Tech on fronts including startup acquisitions — to the point that companies tried to avoid this scrutiny with 'reverse acqui-hires' in which they hired key team members and licensed technology rather than acquiring startups outright. (The practice seems to be continuing despite Khan's departure from the FTC.) While her aggressive stance led to intense criticism from corners of the tech industry, she defended her approach by saying that only a tiny percentage of deals received 'a second look' and arguing that founders would ultimately benefit from 'a world in which you have six or seven or eight potential suitors' rather than 'just one or two.' And although Khan — who'd been appointed by President Joe Biden — resigned at the start of the second Trump administration, her comments Friday paint the Figma IPO as a vindication for her approach, calling the IPO 'a win for employees, investors, innovation, and the public.' Of course, Khan's critics are more likely to see Figma's success as coming despite regulatory scrutiny, not because of it. For example, Wedbush Security analyst Dan Ives told Business Insider, 'Figma is a massive success, but it's because of the company's innovative growth and not due to the FTC and Kahn.'
