ARChon will run Android-application on any operating system

Last week, Google announced the ability to run some Android-applications on computers running Chrome OS. This was made possible by the development of a project called App Runtime for Chrome. Looks pretty interesting, but imagine that you can run applications for Android-based devices on any computer with any operating system, be it Windows, Linux or Mac OS, and not just Chrome OS, a market share is negligible. 

Developer under the name Vladikoff became one of the first who realized the opportunity. His project ARChon allows you to run Android-application, on any computer running Google Chrome browser version 37 or later.

Despite the fact that the program has beta status and works quite unstable, many have already oprobovatё it on all available operating systems. If you have a desire to see for themselves the performance ARChon, you must perform the following steps:

1. Download the archive , which contains the working files (the file size is around 101 MB);
2. Extract the contents to any convenient place, such as on the desktop. The result should be a folder named "vladikoff-archon-44bc9ba24037";
3. In your browser, go to the preset settings - Tools - Extensions;
4. Set a checkmark in "Developer mode";
5. Click on "Load unpacked extension";
6. In the window that opens, select the unzipped folder "vladikoff-archon-44bc9ba24037";
7. Ensure that the application ARChon Custom Runtime was successfully installed and running, you can use the well-known game "2048", which is downloaded and installed in an identical manner to the instructions above. The only difference is that after installing this extension under his description appears the button "Start", which will display a running game on your monitor.
8. Removing extensions by clicking on the Recycle Bin icon next to the description of the extension.

So far, in the same way it does not run all of the applications, but you can expect a further development of the project, which will bring a full-fledged operation of all games and applications. With all the details about the fate of the project, as well as instructions on how to set up and manage the expansion can be found on the official website of the developer.
