Apple's exclusive ProRes RAW format, which for the time being was only available for Apple devices, is gradually making its way to other operating systems. If you are one of the users who understand how to work with video, then you certainly know that the ProRes RAW format can make perfect use of the hardware on Apple devices, which means that it does not load so much. The rendering of the video itself then takes a much shorter time when using the ProRes format, if it is performed on an Apple device.

Apple has decided that the ProRes RAW format will no longer be exclusive to macOS and is currently testing it in certain beta versions of Adobe programs. Adobe programs are available on both macOS and Windows, and are among the most popular among countless content creators. Specific programs that support ProRes RAW on Windows now include beta versions of Adobe After Effects, Adobe Media Encoder, Adobe Premiere, and Adobe Premiere Rush. Virtually anyone of you can join the beta versions, just go to this link. The entire downloaded file is around 700 KB, so you don't have to worry about downloading it for half a day.

If all goes according to plan, there's no reason why ProRes RAW support can't be natively available in Windows applications soon. Thanks to this support, videographers and editors will not have to use macOS devices to edit ProRes RAW video, but Windows will suffice. In conclusion, I just note that in this case it is an initial beta version of the software. Therefore, you perform the installation only at your own risk.
