Start 11 v2 on Snapdragon compouters

from Stardock Forums

I am setting up a new laptop (Microsoft Surface Pro 11) and purchased an additional copy of Start 11 to install on this device. After entering the activation code, an error message appears that indicates the software will not run on an ARM processor. While the new line of Snapdragon processors are not ARM, the software is clearly recognizing it is not Intel.

How may I get Start 11v2 to run on a Snapdragon-based machine? Perhaps a certain combination of emulation settings? 

Yoru software is important to my productivity so a workaround would be appreciated.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. But from my limited reading, Snapdragons basically is using ARM base design. Ref: https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-ARM-and-Snapdragon-processors. If this is correct, it should be able to run on Start11v2 insider release. This version currently only available for Object Desktop Subscribers:  https://www.stardock.com/products/odnt/

Thank you.
