Android and Windows OS are the most popular operating system in the world which provides a lot of flexibility and customization that you can’t get in any other OS.
Android is a Linux based operating system which not only provides you the flexibility of automation and other advanced security functions. It also provides you the power to install other OS such as Kali Linux, BackTrack, Windows 10 OS, MacOS. All of these advanced functionality works only in a rooted device. And we know that rooting an android device void the warranty of our device.
Installing an Operating system requires that your device must be rooted or you must have to unlock the bootloader and you must have the Windows 10 ROM. And then you need to flash your device with the custom ROM and after that, you can use the Win10 OS on your Android device.
If you do not want to root your device then no worry. In this tutorial, I will show you, ‘how you can easily install Windows 10 OS in your Android device without root using Limbo PC emulator.’

I’ve entered the above settings and run this, on my Samsung S8, using the .qcow file downloaded from your linked site. The emulator seems to start (and keep running) but after the line with Booting from Hard Disk … , the screen goes black (apart from white band at the bottom with the normal Android buttons) and nothing else happens.
Do you have any ideas/suggestions, please?
