A New Revolution from Google: Windows Apps Run Seamlessly on Chrome
In a new move to enhance integration between operating systems, Google announced the relaunch of its Cameyo platform, allowing users to run Windows applications directly through the Chrome browser, without needing to install Windows on their devices.
This move comes after Google's acquisition of Cameyo in 2023. Cameyo specializes in virtual app delivery technology and enables organizations to run traditional applications via the cloud, making it easier for employees to access their software from any internet-connected device.
According to Google, the new platform works seamlessly with ChromeOS. Users can now run Windows applications such as Microsoft Office, SAP, or accounting software without requiring a full Windows environment. Performance has also been optimized to integrate with Chrome's security and device management features.
This move is part of Google's vision to make ChromeOS a viable alternative to Windows PCs, especially for educational institutions and businesses seeking flexible, secure, and easy-to-manage solutions.
The company confirmed that Cameyo will be fully integrated into Google Workspace in the near future, meaning users will be able to open Windows applications directly from within Gmail, Drive, or Docs.
With this development, Google aims to expand its ecosystem to include traditional applications that were until recently exclusive to Windows, a move that could significantly transform the world of cloud computing.
