It's normal Windows, just on ARM. Windows on ARM already supports x32 and x64 emulation. Pretty much the only stuff that doesn't work is hardware drivers (to be expected) and games with kernel level anti-cheat (also expected). They've also announced a new 20% faster x64 emulation layer. Recently there's been a big push of apps getting native ARM ports too, Chrome for example.


The Chrome one was interesting as Chromium and as conequence VSCode and Edge had arm versions for years
