@PurpCat I tried to read that article, but it refuses to let me read it unless I run proprietary software.

I wasn't writing about windows RT, I was thinking of windows 10 ARM, seems I may have misremembered things from windows RT as being the case with windows 10 ARM.


Looking as the Wikipedia article on windows RT, as far as I can see, they seem to have barely managed to port cut down core components of windows as well as office and a few more boring pieces of software. As detailed, it seems that such version of losedows sucked even more than usual, as it would only run specifically ported ARM versions of software?


Windows 10 ARM seems to JIT all the things, as detailed in this article (which sadly lacks technical details): https://www.theverge.com/2016/12/7/13866936/microsoft-windows-10-arm-desktop-apps-support-qualcomm
