Microsoft launched the Windows 10 IoT version in 2015 for the Raspberry Pi series and other single-board computers to install and deploy more applications.
However, the Raspberry Pi series devices use Broadcom’s ARM processors, so they can only run universal applications from the Windows 10 store.
If you find this monotonous, you will soon have a new option, which is to run the fully functional Windows 10 ARM version system.

The ability to run the full version of Windows 10 on Raspberry Pi is thanks to @NTAuthority’s porting. Although it has been successfully removed, there are still many issues.
When @NTAuthority initially tried to install it, the Raspberry Pi directly encountered a blue screen crash, but after using PE mode, the system was successfully installed and booted.
Since the Windows 10 ARM version itself has a built-in x86 emulator, users can also install and run regular desktop programs after a successful boot.
However: due to unknown compatibility issues with the system, it can only read one core of the processor, and random checks may still prompt errors.
However, since developers are interested in porting, we believe that we can also install the ARM version ourselves later, and maybe Microsoft will officially adapt the ARM version too.
