LumenLux Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Does anyone have experience getting PTE software or .exe file to run on the Chrome OS? I understand that VM Ware may have a add on to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom95521 Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Currently the only way I can think of to run PTE on a chromebook (Chrome OS) is to use the Chrome Remote Desktop and connect to a Windows PC. The frame rate may not be very smooth and you may not have audio but it's worth a try.https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/1649523?hl=enhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_Remote_DesktopTom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LumenLux Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Thanks Tom! I will look more closely, but I presume the traveling Chromebook would have needed to set up the Desktop PC before "leaving town"? Or if a Windows PC were available at the remote Chromebook location, I would just run PTE on that PC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom95521 Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I have not tried but I doubt if it would work remotely over the internet. I think the Windows PC running PTE would have to be on the same network. If I remember I will bring my Chromebook home tomorrow and try running PTE.Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
