Hands on with Windows 10x

Windows 10x has been available to peek at for a while now via Windows 10X emulator tools but it’s now also possible to have a look via VM disk image prepared by Albacore and, I must say, it’s pretty neat.

Sadly, support for Win32 apps via containers , once touted, has now been removed as Windows 10X shifts from dual to single-screen pc devices.

Overall, it’s quite polished and inviting while providing what feels like a Windows ‘lite’ or, more realistically, a chromebook experience.

I’m still excited for the final product and hopeful about the reintroduction of Win32 app support.

Wait, so is this through the emulator app or not?

No, this is a virtual machine running an image extracted and compiled by the enthusiast I linked to. I’d suggest you follow him, his stuff is really neat.
