It's not a perfect solution, for reasons we'll get into in a moment, but it's a great way to get the benefits of Windows – its many useful apps – without a full Windows PC.įortunately, this functionality works even if your device is offline, and it supports drag-and-drop file transfers, copying and pasting text or graphics, "frustration-free printing," and much more.Īs we said before, though, the integration is not ideal: to run Windows apps, you need to open a full Windows instance, you can't run individual Windows apps within Chrome OS.
