Wondered that myself. One of the comments says that it runs better than Genymotion. Isn't Genymotion suppose to be for developers?
Doesn't mean it will, just asking the question.
Further research found this page: enabling adb connection[^]
My best guess is yes.

Their main page says "Run Android Apps in Windows"
That doesn't sound like dual-booting to me. Not sure how it's different from, say, BlueStacks.

Just seen a question where the OP has a Windows application with "dataGridView18" and "textBox63" - I can only imagine what the form looks like...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Nowadays we don't have to care about all that low level stuff anymore. Everything has been dumbed down sufficiently that we can build any monstrosity without having to worry about anything.
So, will you now be so kind and also drink the Coolaid?

It's not just the sheer number of controls - though that is a eye-watering concept - it's the use of VS default names for them all.
I'd hate to have to maintain code like that: I'd end up hunting down and slaughtering the individual concerned, and claiming "pest control" as my defence...

You mean you change the default names, I haven't changed since day one and I'm up tp textBox1201136. It's like collecting rubber bands and making a ball with them.

Back when I was lecturing, I used to give a few marks for proper control naming. Effectively free marks. I repeatedly underscored this, but even so, out of the couple of hundred I lectured, probably only about 10 did it. Some even re-sat the test after I'd gone through the how I marked the original and still didn't shift themselves. Worse, you got the occasionalnon-functional code where it was clear they'd got confused where textBox12 was the user name and textBox13 was the forename and mucks-dipped the validation, but I couldn't give marks.
Quite an eye-opener.

I always wonder why people keep going in such a fashion. No matter how confused they get, no matter how much time they waste, they never take a step back and try to eliminate the cause of their problems.
In the end they deliver a complete mess and proudly proclaim that it works.

And this is precisely why working software should NOT be taken as the holy grail of measurements. Yes it may work, but it may be inefficient, difficult to maintain or extend, undocumented and show a complete lack of any form of design.

I inherited an application just like that a while ago. Absolutely no attempt was made to rename the default control names, thus making the task of maintaining such a monstrosity extremely difficult.
Added to that, the developer also had no understanding of even the basics of OO as he had copied and pasted duplicate methods all over the code (clearly never heard of inheritance), had no structured exception handling and must rank as one of the worst applications I have seen.
And they wondered why they used to get constant complaints from the users about it

I'm working on some code of my own creation. It involves retrieving similar (but not identical) data from about half a dozen databases. This data ibnolves medical clinics. Each database source has its own id/naming convention for clinics. Yesterday, I realized that I needed the department name under which each clinic operates. Instead of writing another stored proc to retrieve just this info, I completely ripped out all existing code for the individual data sources, and wrote a single stored proc that returns ALL of the data for a given clinic from all of the database sources, and then spent a couple of hours refactoring the code to use the new data. Benefit - I only have to retrieve the data one time when the app starts up instead of waiting until it's needed (and it WILL be needed). Everything became easier because the data is always available (in a static Globals class).
New programmers (as a rule) would rather code around the problem rather than address the problem directly. Granted, it can be difficult to know when optimizing the code is the right way to go, but still...

Well, a "Master of Disaster" indeed (see his own response).

The problem is, you're assuming what the end result looks like from the names. If this is a Windows Forms app with multiple tabs, and each tab had a mix of textboxes and a grid, then it's entirely possible that it would look like this by default. It could be that they have created a data capture application that is driven by a wizard type interface.
Of course, having a decent naming convention would be a big start.
