TLDR: For an "official" Octave for Windows on ARM, we'd need support for that target in GCC (which currently doesn't exist).
In the meantime, users that are interested in a version of Octave that runs natively on Windows on ARM could refer to the binaries that are distributed by MSYS2:
https://packages.msys2.org/packages/mingw-w64-clang-aarch64-octave

Hello,

Now that the "Copilot+PC"(Windows ARM) laptops are rapidly increasing in market share (Microsoft Surface Laptop, Dell XPS 13, HP OmniBook X 14, and more), are there any plans to provide binaries for GNU Octave on Windows arm64?

As far as I know, Octave works on Windows arm64 devices through emulation, but that is not ideal as Octave is relatively performance-intensive. Please try to add support and builds soon so that Octave can be much more usable on Windows on ARM.

Thanks.
