[Q] Can windows RT streams PC games? - Windows RT General

I know we can use remote desktop applications like Splashtop to remote the PC and play PC games with little lag, maybe.
So I wonder if we can use "Limelight" (like Nvidia Gamestream on Nvidia Shield). With the same processor (Tegra 4) on the Surface 2 and the Nvidia Shield. But I am curious because it requires Java.
Is it compatible with Java (or Jailbroken Windows RT devices)? :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
FYI: https://github.com/limelight-stream/limelight-pc/releases

Remote desktop supported natively (doesnt work for many games though). VNC on jailbroken devices. Teamviewer and splashtop both in the windows store for non jailbroken devices.
There is IKVM on jailbroken devices which allows you to run some java applications. Its slower than an actual java virtual machine and not 100% compatible though. Thats the only java we have for RT.
The surface 2 can't be jailbroken though so VNC and IKVM are thrown out the window entirely.

ipega 9025 gamepad for android, ios and windows - help please.

This gamepad, the so called 9025, with the space in the middle of it to fit an tablet or a phone: it's advertised as working with windows android and ios. While i have not had any difficulty on android i find that it doesn't work on windows or ios. Don't get me wrong, it pairs with them all and even the multimedia buttons work but while i can play beach buggy on the android phone and the shiled tv, none of the controls seem to work with ios or windows 10 when i try to play beach buggy on them. In spite of the fact that it does pair with windows, android, and ios, the game beach buggy will only work on android systems. In the game beach buggy, the controller is not recognized as connected on windows or ios despite the fact that it does pair successfully and the multimedia keys work as proof.
I bought this controller because it says it works with android, ios, and windows but it's not working with the beach buggy game that i enjoy on windows or ios, only on android.
Can any of you please help with that?

Is there a way to run .exe files based for windows on tab s4

Name says it all. Basicly want to know if i can run old exexutable files to install on the android tablet possibly in dex mode.
Reason why is i have alot of old games for pc like age of empires id like to port over to my tablet for long travel trips if possible.
Any and all feedback is appreciated. I do have the snes n64 ps1 emulators but i want to test the ability to play pc games with the keyboard and mouse
https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/android/
or
exagear for android
or
dosbox depending on versions of games
or scumm for very old games
Splashtop or rdp might work
You can use Steam and with a fast enough internet connection use cloud service like https://vortex.gg
I'm not sure if you can add your own games to their library. I have a gaming laptop so haven't used it.

[Question] Use the surface RT as a second screen for Windows 10

I have done a search and the last post was from 2013. Many google searches are old as well and supposedly are not working.
Is there a way to use my old surface RT as a second monitor for my Windows 10 pc/laptop?
To me the would be the most useful use of this old unsupported piece of tech.
I would also LOVE this, even if there was a way to remote into the RT.
There is splashtop on the windows store with its desktop counterpart. I've been trying to use my surface as a THIRD monitor to no avail, since everything I've found can't handle the fact that I already have two monitors.
There is also spacedesk, but the html5 viewer doesnt seem to work on the surface.

Extract RT apps from device before migrating to W10 ARM

Hello experts,
I have a surface RT with some apps, and another one migrated to windows 10 ARM 32.
On the one still in RT, there are apps that are not available any more on the windows store, for example,
- Splashtop RT client (works wonderfully well)
- VLC for RT (yes it existed!! - ok there is now VLC for ARM 32 so not a big deal, just wanted to compare)
- Poki for Pocket
- Some webradios that i like
- Some photo apps that i like (very occasional use for sure)
As a standard feature, there is no way to backup apps AFAIK, but maybe one jailbreak is done for W10 installation, there might be?
So that we could make a repository of RT apps and share them
Thanks
