I’m afraid I know the answer but hope to overlook something. Is it possible to embed a desktop application into a Windows 8 app?
I would say it cannot be possible because an app should also run under the ARM architecture and desktop applications can’t run there but hope, that someone can imagine a workaround.
No. That is not possible. Not just because of differences in processor architectures, but also because of a vastly different security and runtime environment. Lots of other reasons as well, but no need to go into it. 🙂
