AI Thread Summary
Running an executable (.exe) file on an iPad is challenging due to the differences in operating systems (Windows vs. iPadOS) and hardware architectures (x86 vs. ARM). To achieve this, one would likely need a framework such as Mono or a virtual machine, although specific solutions may not be readily available. The discussion also touches on the historical context of .exe files, referencing older operating systems like DEC's TOPS-10 and VAX/VMS, but the focus remains on the technical hurdles of executing Windows applications on Apple's platform.

what conditions do i need to implement in order to run an exe on an ipad

A lot. It is both a different operating system (Windows vs iPadOS) and a different chip set (x86 vs ARM I suppose). So, that is going to be really hard, you need some kind of framework like mono, but then for this case. I have no idea if that even exists.
 
You will probably need a virtual machine like this one for example. (Although I never tried it personally.)

What does your question have to do with JavaScript?

Um...it would be easier to answer if it did? :smile:

I'm old enough to remember DEC's TOPS-10 and VAX/VMS operating systems, which both had .EXE files IIRC.
