List of All 150+ CMD Commands For Your Windows

Clear Your cache:
A Cache is a small and very fast temporary storage memory. It is designed to speed up the transfer of data and instructions. It is located inside or close to the CPU chip. It is faster than RAM and the data/instructions that are most recently or most frequently used by CPU are stored in cache.

How To Run Android Apps On Google Chrome On Your PC


During Google I/O 2014 it was announced that Chrome OS would be getting limited Android app support, thanks to the creation of a new “App Runtime for Chrome” (aka ARC) that runs Android code at nearly native speeds via a sandboxed Dalvik VM. Since then, several Android apps have made their way over to Chrome OS, though the number is still quite low, coming in under 50. Of course, it’s only a matter of time before this situation improves. In order to make testing out Android apps easier than ever for developers, or even just everyday tinkerers for that matter, Google has now released a new tool called ARC Welder. The only shortcoming is that it allows only one app at a time.

Running Android Apps On Google Chrome

➡ Install ARC Welder.
Go to Chrome extension factory and simply add it to chrome. The file size is a bit over 100 mb in size so it will take some time to load and will also get installed to your chrome browser.


➡ After it gets installed, type chrome://apps in address bar of the browser. It will start showing Arc Welder app icon as shown in the picture below. Click on the icon.


Meanwhile you have to find Android apk of the app which you want to work in chrome. If you have that app installed on your phone, just use android apk extractor to extract apk. You can also try some android apk mirror sites but that’s not really recommended from security point of view.

➡ Add your APK through the interface as shown.


➡ Add the apk and in the next screen just leave the default settings as it is and click on launch app.


You're done!!

NOTE: Not all apps will play nicely with ARC Welder, and this really is meant more as a way for developers to test out and make changes to their apps in anticipation of bringing them to Chrome OS. What do you think, excited to see more developers bring over their apps to Chrome OS
