Yes, and no. Check OpenRT, the best Surface RT wiki, in my opinion: https://openrt.gitbook.io/open-surfacert/surface-rt/linux

I would like to start a Mission to re-jail break Windows RT. It has everything needed to run full programs, couldn't we just find and delete the files that are blocking the installation of full desktop programs.........
No. Windows RT, like Windows Phone, is compiled for the ARM architecture. "Desktop Windows Applications" are all compiled to use the x86 instruction set.
How can i get windows rt on my android tablet. I have been searching around and keep coming up with this answer, " Windows 8 can't run on an android tablet because it is designed for x64/x86 devices, not arm based devices." Obviously those other people did not read my question properly or they just haven't done their research on the windows rt. I am asking about windows rt, which was designed to run on arm based devices. So theoretically you could switch from android to windows as long as you are comfortable with the limitations of windows rt. My problem is that i don't know where to get windows rt let alone install it onto my tablet. Anyone know how? If not Are there any custom roms that are designed to function like a windows tablet?
When I try to jailbreak my surface rt it can't find the registry key. Please helppp!!!
Uh, what? What do you mean by "jailbreaking" in this context?
In any case, the ARM-based Surface RT family of tablets cannot currently be jailbroken in any way, shape or form. You're stuck with the Windows operating system and Microsoft's application store. If you want a device where you can install a different OS, such as Android or Ubuntu, get a Surface Pro instead.
Sorry to bump in here... But I figured out how to get a shell (cmd) as SYSTEM user on Windows RT. And now I would like to know if anyone knows whether this helps in making the device dualbooting with Ubuntu (or single boot with ubuntu) *sigh*
EDIT: I just didn't want to start a new thread...
Greetings,
I have surface RT 32 GB and i'd like to run .exe files on it. I read many articles about this issue but unfortunately its impossible to run .exe files.
Is there a tool to load windows ( 8.1 or 10 ) as a virtual machine on Surface RT ?
Thank you.
RIP
Hi all,
Just bought a Windows Surface RT 8.1 off of someone thinking I could use this as a regular Windows PC. That was a mistake lol. I've been trying to figure out what the current state of jailbreaking/running x86 apps is since most of the jailbreaking articles and info is from 2013.
I was able to do this https://forum.xda-developers.com/wi...ent/windows-8-1-rt-jailbreak-exploit-t3226835
and boot into Test Mode. Does this allow for running ARM compiled apps?
Thanks.
