Need help with Chrome OS

GrammaM · ‎07-05-2019

Just bought Chromebook 14XXXXX, and cannot seem to find any tech support with either Google or HP. Both continue to redirect me to the other. First (and perhaps easiest question) how to adapt games I played in win 10 to Chrome OS. Does software such as CrossOver work? And if so, how to use it? Can't find any simple do this, then this, then this type instructions. Any info will help, even if info says go back to MS and Windows

Given the date of your post, I would have expected someone to respond to it before this -- but since that has not happened, I will take a shot at it ...
I checked on Crossover, and it is STILL in Beta, even though it came out in 2017. So, my guess is that is does not work well, which is why it is not yet for sale by CodeWeavers.

Folks ask the same question for Linux machines -- can they run their Windows games -- and the answer is generally NO. Folks are able to run some stuff using Steam -- but that is an entirely different situation.

So basically, my best guess is that the answer is NO -- you can't run your Windows game in Chrome OS.

I am a volunteer and I do not work for, nor represent, HP
