Windows 10 Update May Bring Microsoft's x86 on ARM64 Emulation

Windows 10 Update May Bring Microsoft's x86 on ARM64 Emulation

Smartphones Nov 23,2016 0

Microsoft is planning to enable x86 on ARM64 emulation in Windows 10 by Fall 2017 with its 'Redstone 3' release, according to reports.

There's been a lot of talk that Microsoft was working on bringing x86 emulation to ARM processors. Now ZDNet's Mary Jo Foley claims that this capability is coming to Windows 10, though not until "Redstone 3" in the Fall of 2017.

Windows 10 Mobile is currently supporting Continuum, a feature that allows Windows 10 Mobile devices to connect to external displays and keyboards. However, the feature only allows users to run Universal Windows Platform (UWP), and not full-fledged x86 apps.

On the business side, there is a demand to use x86 applications on mobile devices, and it seems that the implementation of x86 emulation function certainly makes sense.

Foley says that the x86 emulation on ARM is currently on the list of features that Microsoft is planning to make part of "Redstone 3," the version of Windows 10 that sources have said will be available in the Fall of 2017.

That date lines up with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 830 chip, which would have the kind of virtualization capabilities that a robust emulator in Windows 10 would require.

Microsoft did not provide any comment.
