TL;DR
- Google has officially relaunched Cameyo by Google, letting businesses run Windows apps directly through Chrome OS or a browser, with no full Windows install required.
- It’s a big deal for IT teams trying to move away from Windows, though history shows that enterprise migrations don’t happen overnight.
- If Google ever extends this tech to regular Chromebook users, it could finally make Chrome OS a real rival to cheap Windows laptops.
Last year, Google quietly acquired Cameyo, a software virtualization company known for making Windows apps run seamlessly through a browser. Now, that acquisition is paying off. Google has officially rolled out Cameyo by Google, a rebranded and fully integrated version built right into the Chrome OS ecosystem. The concept sounds simple but carries huge implications: Cameyo lets businesses run their existing Windows apps directly on Chrome browsers or Chromebooks, with no full Windows installation required.
