Question about Windows on ARM #1419

Closed WindowsNinetyTen closed 2 months ago

WindowsNinetyTen commented 3 months ago

I'm only curious as to whether this works also on Windows for ARM's emulation layer. I have a Windows PC, but it is x86, and I already use this layer on it.

Yes, it works. You'll need this if you want 16-bit programs to launch directly (not only from the command line otvdm.exe 16bitprogram.exe):

The only thing that doesn't work is not otvdm itself - the addon that displays icons for 16-bit apps doesn't have any effect. But otvdm seems to work perfectly.

I see. Just curious. Thanks!
