Windows 10: How to emulate x64 applications like Clone Hero on ARM64 Laptop?

JudahD5 · Sep 15, 2024

Greetings!I own a Dell Inspiron 14 laptop, and wanted to play the free to play game Clone Hero a fanmade successor to games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band. However, when I downloaded it and sought to play it, I got an error message which said "This program can only be installed on versions of Windows designed for the following processor architectures: x64."After poking around online, many have said that ARM64 based computers, such as mine, can emulate x64-based applications, but everything I've found has provided basically no information on how exactly to do that, or if there's an alternate

Running R statistical software on WIndows 11 ARM64 in x64 emulation

Hi.

I need an R statistical program to run on my Surface Pro X with Windows 11 and x64 emulator. Most of x64 programs run correctly in emulation mode, including SPSS 26 and Wolfram Mathematica 13 PMOD 4.3 all with Zulu Java 11 for x64. However, Rgui.exe and R.exe with version 4.1.1 of R start correctly only in 32-bit emulation. The x64 version of Rgui.exe starts but not show initialization screen and crashes within 5 seconds.

Anybody was able to run Rgui.exe of any version of R on Windows 11 ARM64? I use build 22621.1702. The producer of PMOD suggests using R 4.1.1 and it must be x64 version. I may try some other version of R.exe (and Rgui.exe) that will run on Surface Pro X (or other newer ARM64 based Surface SQ1, SQ2, SQ3 processor or 8cx).

Regards

x64 support for Windows 11 arm64

Hi, I'm running a Windows 11 arm64 OS on Mac M1 using parallels.
When loading a x64 DLL on Visual Studio I get an error, apperantly It's not supported.
Is there an emulator or translator for x64 architechture on Windows 11 arm64 or Visual studio arm64?

Thanks,

Roy

Introducing x64 emulation in preview for Windows 10 on ARM PCs

Today, we’re releasing the first preview of x64 emulation for ARM64 devices to Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel starting with the Build 21277. It can be installed on Windows 10 on ARM PCs by following the instructions as explained in this blog post.

When we first launched Windows 10 on ARM in late 2017, the long tail of apps customers needed were dominated by 32-bit-only x86 applications, so we focused our efforts on building an x86 emulator that could run the broad ecosystem of Windows apps seamlessly and transparently. Over time, the ecosystem has moved more toward 64-bit-only x64 apps and we’ve heard the feedback that customers would like to see those x64 apps running on ARM64. That’s why we are working on expanding the capability of our emulation to include x64 applications and sharing this first preview to gather feedback.

While we’re expanding the capabilities of our emulator, for the best possible experience we recommend developers support their apps natively on ARM64. ARM64 apps are fully supported in our Windows SDK and Visual Studio 2017 onwards, and we encourage our developers to recompile their apps for ARM64.

In this preview, you can install x64 apps from the Microsoft Store or from any other location of your choosing. You can try key x64-only productivity apps like Autodesk Sketchbook, as well as games like Rocket League. Other apps, like Chrome, which run today on ARM64 as 32-bit apps, can run as 64-bit using the new x64 emulation capability. These apps may benefit from having more memory when run as 64-bit emulated apps.

In the spirit of the Dev Channel, this capability is still in development and will continue to improve in both compatibility and performance over time, so some of the apps you try running in emulation may not work initially. As you test and try the build, share your feedback with us on the experience in Windows Feedback Hub by using the subcategory x64 Apps on ARM. Your feedback will play a key role in ensuring we are aware of the scenarios most important to you so we can focus on refining them as we provide updates in the coming months.

For the best app performance, please install a preview version of the Qualcomm Adreno graphics driver from the following locations:

Samsung Galaxy Book S: https://aka.ms/x64previewdriver

Lenovo Flex 5G: https://aka.ms/x64previewdriver

Surface Pro X: https://aka.ms/x64previewdriverprox

Additionally, to support running both ARM64 and x64 C++ applications at the same time, please install a preview version of the ARM64 C++ redistributable from https://aka.ms/arm64previewredist. These steps will not be required in future Insider Preview builds.

With developers increasingly supporting ARM64 apps natively, emulating x64 apps is an important step in our journey with Windows 10 on ARM. Through working with Qualcomm Technologies, Windows 10 on ARM PCs continue to deliver incredible battery life, connectivity capabilities with 4G LTE and 5G, and immersive experiences with AI acceleration, pen and touch capabilities – all features we believe to be more essential as we work, learn, and connect from home and other remote locations.

From the unveiling of new Windows 10 on ARM devices like the Acer Spin 7, the Lenovo Flex 5G and the new Surface Pro X, to the announcement of compatibility on ARM through App Assure, the releases of ARM64-native Microsoft Teams, a fully optimized browsing experience with native Microsoft Edge, to the OpenGL/OpenCL compatibility layer, and the beta version of ARM64-native Photoshop as well as ARM64-native Adobe Lightroom that was released this week – we are committed to listening to customer feedback to ensure Windows 10 on ARM provides a great customer experience.

We look forward to the feedback from our Windows Insider community. If you’d like to try the emulation preview and are not yet part of the Windows Insider Program you can join here.
