I ran the windows installer of the latest release and it mentions x86_64. I'm confused and have yet to have scala installed...

Also the msi is not signed

We do not currently support native ARM64 on Windows.
The platform is not yet commonly used.

GitHub actions don't support it just yet. As we speak, Linux ARM64 is in public beta (https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners#standard-github-hosted-runners-for-public-repositories), MacOS AARCH64 is already stable. Perhaps we can expect Windows ARM64 in the near future.

Until such a time, we're likely stuck with x86_64 installers.

Also the msi is not signed

We hope to resolve this part when we can. Efforts are in progress.
