In summary, running an exe file on an Apple iPad is not directly possible, as iOS does not support Windows executable files. However, users can explore alternatives such as using remote desktop applications to access a Windows PC that can run the exe file, or utilizing virtualization software to run Windows on a compatible device. Additionally, some developers may offer iOS-compatible versions of their software that can perform similar functions.

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?

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