Windows rt launch desktop programs. What is Windows RT, and should you get a tablet with it. On some devices we can use Windows RT

Golovna / Setting up

The first and single entry about the ability to bypass the system and launch unsigned programs in Windows 8 RT has appeared. Richly merezhevikh vidan interpret the article as "jailbreak for Windows 8 RT" . Let’s try to get back together, what do you want to say? author for real.

Facts about jailbreak RT

  • a practical method for launching unsigned desktop add-ons on Windows 8 RT has been published;
  • The spill is in the very kernel of Windows 8, both in x86, x64 and in the ARM version;
  • The code and method are available for repetition; unlock must be done manually immediately after re-activating the device.

Heads of the author jailbreak RT

  • Windows 8 RT is an exact copy (port) of the original Windows 8;
  • The impossibility of launching RT in desktop mode is any kind of additives for the customer, which is a marketing move.

This is not so much about the possibility of launching pirated add-ons, but rather about the possibility of writing (and porting) add-ons for the desktop mode that can be expanded and installed on the tablet, bypassing the Windows Store. Such programs are not necessarily subordinated to the ModernUI ideology, which is well suited for the Surface scenario with a connected keyboard and mouse.

You can repeat the author’s experiment on your own RT device. You need a personal computer and Visual Studio 2012 Remote Tools. Actively discussed nutrition (including the history of the appearance of this spill) can be found on the XDA-developers forum. Remember the smut - there is no practical smut in the face of irritability. You will not be able to run any programs until you write them (or select ready-made programs written in .NET 4.5 under ARM) independently using Visual Studio. Some examples of such programs can be found “by hand” - screenshots are available for:

  • Bosh emulator + archives

It turns out that the spill does not harm your tablet in any way - in fact, if you steal a bad code from the Surface memory (for example, you downloaded it from a dubious site through a browser), then to activate it you will need to go through the entire jailbreak procedure. Moreover, it is worthwhile to work independently and repeat this action immediately after re-engaging the device. Regardless, Microsoft is already working on correcting this spill.

Windows RT can completely avoid the figurative label of an “inferior” version of Windows. On RT tablets in desktop mode you can already install 7Zip, Far Manager, Miranda IM, Notepad++, Quake 2 and many other popular “desktop” programs. If you have a Windows RT tablet and want to expand its functionality, then this post is for you


Retailers from XDA Developers are trying to stop the large-scale robot today. One of the direct activities is the delivery of popular programs to the “unpopular” Windows RT. There is a special post on the XDA Developers forum that collects information about all the rebuilt and not rebuilt programs that run on Windows RT with Jailbreak. Absolutely more programs are full-functional; Since there are still amends, this is especially discussed.

What programs and games can be played for Windows RT to jailbreak Windows RT (see instructions below)?

Recompiled (rebuilt) programs:

— ;
— ;
- (“hierarchical Start menu on the desktop panel”);
- (Mova programming and runtime);
— ;

— ;
- (Recording and editing sound);
- (“Put in” screenshot program);
- (File acquisition, BitTorrent client);
- (Working with documents in DJVU format).

Programs that run on Windows RT without previous modification:

;
(Program for viewing files);
(Manage a Windows Phone PC as a server).

... as well as dozens of game engines, programs and libraries for players (the latest list and programs sent to the programs are available for submissions).

Bring back respect - no mention of emulation! Program the program “how to start” - with the exe file;

How to jailbreak Windows RT? Instructions:

1. Vantage;
2. Place the downloaded archive in an empty folder: unzip it and copy all the files to the tablet;

3. Open the folder on the tablet, run the file called runExploit. The process of pishov! Click on the messages that appear on the screen of your Windows RT tablet;


4. In the Developer License window, enter your login (not your email address) and password for your Microsoft account. After successful data transfer, click Close within a few seconds.
5. When you get sick soon:


... press the Y and Enter key on the keyboard. After being notified that the installation was successful, press Enter again;


6. Click the Change Volume button to complete the Windows RT jailbreak process.


7. Look at your front screen - a “tile” with the words “Get Kernek Base” will appear here. Important! When you re-enable your tablet, Windows RT jailbreak becomes available. You can do this very quickly - just run the BAT file. The jailbreak assistant will ask you to press the change volume button. That’s it – I’ll put the “jail” back on the map... until then, you won’t be able to see the “tile” Get Kernel Base.

8. Done!

For XDA Developers and WindowsTips en

Hacker C. L. Rokr Know a way to bypass the mechanism for verifying program signatures upon startup in Windows RT. Thus, it becomes possible to install and launch more desktop programs under Windows RT.

Windows RT is a special version of Windows 8, optimized for ARM processors. Please install it on tablets such as Microsoft Surface. The package includes Windows Media Player, and the same desktop programs may include those that come with the operating system: File Explorer, Internet Explorer and Office RT. Further installation on the device can only be done by programs created using cross-platform Windows Runtime APIs. By canceling your digital signature, this program can be installed on Windows RT. Portable devices or running desktop programs on older versions of Windows on Windows RT are prohibited.

The operating system verifies the signature of programs before startup. The author writes that the exploit has become possible due to the fact that Microsoft has ported the operating system code from the x86 platform to the ARM platform. They ported the desktop code exactly so that the reference address in memory 0x19FFA6 has the same function here - to save a byte that represents a minimum level of signature to the code that is pleasant to run program The value “0” indicates the presence of a digital signature. The value “8” indicates a digital signature praised by Microsoft. The maximum value of “12” is all Windows system components.

On x86 computers, programs are launched with a minimum value of "0", and under Windows RT they have a signature value of at least "8". This parameter is stored directly in the kernel and cannot be changed. However, after the system places it in memory, it can be changed immediately in memory. The author of the exploit was able to deceive the necessary code through the CSRSS (Client/Server Runtime Subsystem) process, a component of the Windows kernel, with the help of a debugger that modifies the CSRSS data in memory. In this way, I decided to create a code that changes the value “8” to “0” behind a given address.

Might as well be a vikorist robot C. L. Rokr And release a simple utility that will wrap up the whole job without having to deal with a debugger. In any case, the jailbreak will need to be repeated after starting the OS. As a result of this problem with mobile devices, it is called “tethered jailbreak”.

The hacker is launching a call for Microsoft to remove the unnecessary “marketing” restrictions on running Win32 programs under Windows RT, or would like to give developers the opportunity to make decisions about how programs they can run. To verify digital signatures with the option that is enabled.

The Windows RT operating system is designed specifically for devices with ARM processors. Microsoft is trying to win a share of the tablet market. Although we don’t want to visually differentiate Windows 8 from its key functions, let’s take a look at some of them

Desktop mode

Although it is designed for tablet PCs, Windows RT has a desktop mode just like a desktop PC. So it’s a little different, it’s not like it’s called a work desk, but it doesn’t look like a “computer desk.” Desktop mode allows you to deny access to:
1) Ceruvan panels;
2) My Computer, Documents folders and libraries;
3) Internet Explorer 10;
4) MS Paint;
5) Notepad;
6) Office;
Where their similarity ends, on the desktop there are more information, other add-ons, both existing with the system and installed, you cannot place.

Visnovok: RT has desktop mode, which provides access to the file manager for many installed main programs, but you cannot run other programs from the desktop.

Windows Store

The programs can only be installed from the Windows Store. It’s crazy, but it’s a fact. These programs were specially tailored for work on ARM-based tablet PCs, as well as PC x86 chipsets. Microsoft has created a language of great importance for consumers, so that programs can be used on both platforms. That's why existing Windows programs (EXE-converted files) cannot run on Windows RT.

Visnovok: Everything you buy from the Windows Store will work on both Windows 8 RT and regular Windows 8. Other software cannot be installed.

Office 2013

Installation office. Works in desktop mode, but not in Outlook. Instead, it is transferred that you are guilty of vikoristuvat the capabilities of Windows 8 for the promotional Post Office, People and Information Programs.

Web browsers

Currently, the only option for viewing web pages in Windows RT is Internet Explorer 10. You can launch either from the Metro start screen, or in desktop mode with icons on the desktop. I want a version of Google Chrome that works in the metro, but is not available from the Windows Store and is not available for Windows RT. It is entirely possible that other browsers will be allowed in storefronts and in the future, rather than Microsoft attempting to interoperate the functionality of third-party browsers. When working on IE 10, you will enjoy all the functionality and efficiency. Notes: You can vikorize any browser other than Internet Explorer 10. But forget about plugins, you won’t be able to vikorist with them! (hire for now)

Media Possibility

The Windows tablet version does not include Windows Media Player - Xbox music and video add-ons, which Bill Geist recommends for replacement. There is also no Windows Media Center - if you want to use external devices (TV tuner, for example), then you can upgrade to the latest version of Windows 8

Visnovok: Neither Media Center nor Windows Media Player. Xbox Music and video programs only.

Installation of other operating systems

Windows users have a new feature called Secure Boot. It is important to ensure that you cannot install a new OS, such as Linux. Apple has been doing this on their iPads for a long time, now Microsoft

Visnovok: Legally, you can’t change the OS on your tablet unless you hack Secure Boot (Russia’s people are talented, I have no doubt that it’s harmless to hack and share)
